Good luck Holly, my surgery date is July 2nd and I am 3 days into the nasty Protein only diet, I can't wait till tomorrow I actually get a med salad with ground grown veggies YAY!!. Let me know how your surgery goes we can be banded friends together, I am also getting the plication, They say it is easier to lose weight I sure hope so. I miss my diet pepsi's really bad, but will just plow through.
I am in the pre op stage and I use the pure Protein that I get from walmart. they are 7.88 for 4 drinks but I have been using the 2.00 coupon that I found. They have 23 grams of protein, 1 gram of sugar and have 120 calories. I drink them ice cold and you can also drink them like a malt if you get them to almost freezing. I have tried the Premier Protein but it is really thin and makes me sick. but that is only my opinion. Anyway good luck I am starting my preop diet 6-18-15 and will probably continue to drink them after surgery for a while they really fill me up.

Hi all, I am new here and just waiting on my surgery date 7-2-15. I didn't realize that so many was getting the lapband and the plication. I joined another forum, but was the only bander on there. My last day for all the nasty food I have been abusing myself with over the past 12 years is 6-18 and then I start the liquid diet for 2 weeks. I have started on 2 protein drinks a day and then my dinner and have actually lost 4 1/2 pounds in 2 weeks, I hope to do good with the band and plication. I will keep watching this forum so I can see all the success stories. Thanks for letting me be a part of this great site..
