    Protein shake idea

    The best shake that I have found is Shakeology! All Natural, Vegan and Gluten free! strawberry has 16 g Protein in each serving and only 21g carbs! I've had lap-band for many years and this is the best I have found due to the Vitamin and mineral content. As part of long term side effects of lap-band you really can get depleted in these which can make you feel really bad. Make sure you are meeting your daily requirements!!!!! Look into Shakeology at www.beachbodycoach.com/danadjoplin Good luck to you!

    After APPROVAL help please...

    Once you get your labs done it won't be long before procedure is scheduled. Congrats to you for making this choice of getting the Lap-Band. It is such an effective tool for weight loss. I have had mine for many years and still love it. Very important to exercise- so your recovery is smooth. The band will change your life and the way you feel. I was at 221lbs at my lowest after banding 142lbs. I am almost 48 years old and am now at 163lbs- you know the over 40 stuff! working really hard right now to get back down to 145lbs- you have to exercise and eat right. I now drink Shakeology daily ( about $100 per month) which is actually a great Protein nutrient rich shake- I highly recommend! It's perfect for us lap-banders because you will get vitamen depleted- which is a big and avoidable problem for those with the band. Exercise is extremely important so that you look and feel great when the weight comes off! Feel free to contact me if you need more info. on Shakeology and I am also a team beach body coach- so I can help you with an at home exercise program as well. www.beachbodycoach.com/danadjoplin Good Luck to you on your journey to health!

    Share ideas, What did you eat today ?

    I have had my lap band for several years with much success. I am 47 years old and have recently been very depleted in Vitamans and minerals - my Dr. told me that this is very common with the lap band- so be careful. I recently started drinking Shakeology and immediately began feeling great! It's a meal replacement- 160 calories with water- however I exercise so I put a banana and some orange juice- which adds Calories but as you know with the lap-band you sometimes don't get enough daily. This product is Gluten free and Vegan. It has had a great affect on me! Love it! I not only started feeling great immediately- my digestion is better, and overall have more energy. Now- I am a beach body coach and am promoting health and fitness to all. If you would like more info on shakeology visit my web site at www.beachbodycoach.com/danadjoplin Wishing all lap banders great success as I have had!
