Hey Puna T: I didn't realize you were in Hawaii. You've got some challenges. If there is a Trader Joes on the Island, try Designer whey Protein powder - 2 flavors. There is also a 20 and a 32 gm individual can right on the shelf under it (forgot the name) it tastes good and can be used in Water (the powder).

Hi Good-Banders: Pretty Woman Here. I decided to have the lap band. I've been at this since 2005 scheduled for by-pass, went through all the hoops and jumps with Kaiser & UCLA, then had to change HMO's. While starting over - heard about LB and decided this may be safer. OH, Congrats to "goodbye lady". What in the world is a FILL? HAS ANYONE NEVER HAD A FILL? IS MY BMI OF 54 BAD FOR SURGERY - LIKE COULD THEY DENY ME BECAUSE I'M TOO FAT??? yikes!! help a sista out here - I don't like surprises, that's why I'm joining you NOW!

:crying: You're getting a lot of good info on this question. Seems like many people have had the same query. Here's a website for all Vitamins, Minerals, Proteins and everything for Bariatric Surgery patients that have had the BY-PASS. Their requirements are strict. Since I had planned that route before now registering for the band, I still use my notes and UCLA class training: The best one is a 42gm tube of liquid you can put in Water and there is feedback on each items on the site: www.bariatricchoice.com (includes prices)
