one week away from banding

Hello my name is David my banding is scheduled for 3/26/09. I'm trying to get some help in finding protien powders and diet suggestions for the first 2 weeks

Good luck to you, I cant believe I had my band done almost 2 months ago! BEst thing ever! It's a good tool, as you will find. As far as protein drinks, I did fine with having the Isopure with 40 grams and also picked up some Atkins and Slimfast high protein drinks at Target. They also have the chewable calcium, those are so much better to get down. Jello and pudding and popsicles. Broth soups. Best of luck, you will do fine.

Please walk after the surgery, it really does help with the shoulder pain, discomfort. I walked that nite, and moved the next day too. Keep us posted on the journey.

I am now down just about 20 lbs. no pre op diet.
