Someone also told me that unjury protein powder mixed with silk almond milk was good.

I found a butter pecan Glucerna shake at Walmart that tastes better than any of the others, you can't find it at all Walmarts but its worth the ride to go to another town if they carry it, I would call first though.

By now you have had your surgery, I hope you are doing well and post your progress. I will be having my surgery Monday. I've been on a liquid diet all week. Every Dr. is different just follow his instructions.

Welcome and I hope its smooth sailing from now on, I will be getting my band Monday and look forward to sharing my progress. So far it has been a lot of paper work and Dr. visits, I'll be glad when its all over and I can begin my new life of getting healthy. Good luck to you.

Hi Darah, I'm new to this site and still trying to figure out how to talk to people, anyway I work for a large company and know 5 people that had the lapband surgery. I was going to get it done last year but decided I would try on my own one more time and for the zillionth time I lost weight and then put it right back on. I'm tired of starving to lose it and then eating like crazy again. I believe this will really help me to control my overeating. I am on my 5th day of preop diet and all I can have is 3 protien shakes and 1 sugar free jello or yogurt but some people eat more than that it depends on the dr.

Sorry I messed up trying to post a comment, I'm new to this but I hope I will get better and make some friends, I need all the encouragement I can get.

I know how you feel, this is my 5th day and all I can have is 3 protien shakes and 1 sugar free Jello or yogurt. The protien shake make me sick so that helps my hunger. I know several people who have been through this and they say its worth it so hang in there.

This is my second day of the liquid diet, my surgery is Monday the 18th of April. I really enjoy this site and hope to make some friends. I am 53 years old, I have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. I'm getting nervous about this whole life style change but I know I have to do something different then what I've been doing all my life. I have lost weight with diet pills and crazy diets but always gained it back, I am looking forward to losing it forever.
