Congrats with your decision on the band! I haven't been on here for a while but it was the best decision I have ever made.

Be afraid of the band. I don't say that to scare you but respect it and what it can do to help you. It is a tool. You will love it and hate it at the same time. Let it help you with you weight loss. I have lost just over 100 pounds with mine. I am glad you are in the "mind set" for it. You have to be there for it to work.

What kind of work do you do? To me, the best protein shake is actually at Walmart. Boltman Farms is sold next to the vegitables already to drink. It is a vanilla chai tea. It tastes like eggnog. Watch how much you drink of it, it will fill you up quickly. Watch the calorie count also...

Does this help?

Hey, welcome! :) I post blogs too occasionally. It's a little scary to let it all out, but really nice since I don't have anyone around here currently that knows what I'm going through.

What do you do for work?
