Is this the name of the drink "Quick Protein"??
I normally get EAS AdvantEDGE drinks, and they're great, but I'd like to venture into flavors beside vanilla and strawberry :-) don't really care for chocolate.

Not to highjack this thread, but I wanted to let everyone know that I started a group on Facebook called Lap Band Louisville. Please join!

I love my magic bullitt!

Same here. You probably don't have any Fluid in your band. I go Jan 3rd for my first fill. I can def eat more than I should but I stop when satisfied and I'm trying to pick the right foods. From what I keep reading here and on my FB group we may need 3-4 fills before we feel the restriction. Good luck on your fill!

Thank you! That sucks you have to come up here for appts after that date. But at least it hopefully won't be all the time. Totally worth it!

I'm sorry. It's not easy but maybe the meet with your nutritionist will help! It still shocks me at how different post surgery diets are. Mine is totally different. I had my surgery on Nov 25th(Mon) they told me for Thanksgiving I could have some mashed potatoes and green Beans. Although my appetite wasn't back yet, that came this past weekend. I'm on mostly regular food. Eating veggie Soup scrambled eggs... I can add raw veggies and fruits in 2 days. And by 2 weeks I can have whatever besides meats. (3 weeks chicken and turkey... 8 weeks everything else)

Hi! Where are you getting banded? Dr wise? I've sent you a Pm, I'm in Louisville area. My dr has 2 choices.
2 weeks of Protein Shake diets bought from them (5 a day)
Or
2 weeks of 3 shakes and one high Protein low carb meal.
Good luck! I get banded Monday!

I keep trying to do full days of shakes but just can't do it. Hah. I end up doing one meal. Usually chicken and broccoli or salad. But I've been trying to be good. I take a bite here and there of bad stuff. Hah
