  10. Try Vitamin Shoppe or GNC for Designer Whey. I love chocolate but vanilla almond good too. Take first thing in the morning to kick start your metabolism OR Take 20 minutes after a workout to help recover and build muscle OR Take mid-morning or mid-afternoon to curb cravings.

  21. Hi everyone I am so glad to read all these posts. I had my surgery in May and it was bad. Sleeping was the worse only could sleep on back. Showers were bad to. Forget bending it was so painful. I actually did pick up something heavy and was so scared I did something or had hernia. But went for MRI and all was fine. It's been 6 months and it is soo much better. But I still have issues with bending down or if I move a certain way. Also my last visit to doctor I got a fill and doctor couldn't find port first time. Finally found it but that night I was super sore and than was bruised bad. For some reason the pain below port was tender and kept getting pains. Weird. I think it just takes so much time since we all a foreign object in there. Wish all the best and its so nice to have a support system here. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk
