Went into my second apt after surgery and gained 2 pounds . Hopefully a strict Protein drink diet with maybe one small meal or fruit or meat a day will help this! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How did you guys get your Protein shakes down first week? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I took a fifteen minute walk today. It's very difficult. But it's helping me become more mobile. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did anyone else have trouble getting three shakes down with using the measuring cups? I've been working on a shake since 11 and I keep getting too full to drink a whole shake. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I go in at 6 am tomorrow to get the lap band surgery. I've went from 275-251 since my meetings. Looking forward to surgery. Any advice for recovery Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

He does like bigger women. But I don't see myself getting rail skinny. I plan on trying for 130-140. With my height I'd still be chubby. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm two days away from surgery. And my boyfriend made some comments basically telling me that my weight loss from the lap band isn't going to be to my credit. I know this surgery won't make me just drop any weight I'm going to have to make some serious life changes to succeed with my weight loss. I've been with him like a year and the relationship is pretty serious. He's also made it clear he doesn't want me to get the surgery. How should I deal with this? He's supposed to be my biggest support system. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. But keep in mind that this may result in complications. If I slipped up like this I would consult the surgical specialists who performed my surgery just to make sure that this doesn't lead to damage. You're a human being. It happens. Hopefully you took small bites of the chicken nugget and chewed thoroughly. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Munky, I picked a pack of these up last night. Hopefully I don't get let down again. The chalky aftertaste is making me have to really bite through this. I'm getting banded Tuesday.

I was put on a pre op shake diet for two weeks. A coworker suggested muscle milk lite for my diet. It's working but tastes horrid after drinking it. Any suggestions for some half decent tasting shakes that I don't have to gag to drink? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I've been drinking strawberry muscle milk for my pre op. It isn't half bad. Those and the s'mores pure Protein bars Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
