  1. No, I started mine on may 3rd n my surgery is may 18th. He said it would help to limit difficulties during surgery and healing faster afterwards. I feel like its a long time but he is the professional not me n I def want the safest surgery possible!! Good luck everyone Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk
  2. Thanks and good luch on your surgery. The ones I am supposed to be drinking I got from dr. Not sure if he would allow me to use something else. They are very strict but the ones I have are from arbonne, vanilla flavored. I hate vanilla these are too sweet or something. I tried mixing them with one of the cups of yogurt light Im allowed to have but its still pretty bad.
  3. Hi everyone! I am new to the site. Little about myself I am 33, 5ft 4 in, when I started my pre surgery diet on May 3rd I weighed 308.6 and today I weighed myself 299. The pre surgery diet has been a tough walk but I am managing and not cheating. My safety and recovery is vital i have a family with 3 kids 6,7, and 9. I am married with a great support system. I am not sure what to really expect and am a little nervous but I have to trust God will take care of me. My goal weight is 155 hopefully I get there some day. I am really glad I found this site there is a lot of good information and nobody can have too much support!
  4. Hi my name is Brooke, I am new to site and group. My surgery date is May 18, and I am pretty nervous but excited too! I have been trying to get on site for a while now but I have only been able to read. I started my 14 day pre surgery diet and liver detox. I went on May 3rd to weigh in and I was 308.6. I have been on a liquid diet and today I weighed myself and I was 299. I start the liver detox part of it tomorrow. Wish me luck. I am supposed to be drinking some protein shakes but I have only managed to get one and a half down. I dont like them they are very bad tasting I had to hold my nose to get others down. I hope I am getting enough nutrients.
