MimiK, That is amazing I'm almost through day 2 of my preop diet and with the potential of losing quick pounds has me motivated.

I have survived day 1 and ending it with a protein shake. I purchased a protein blend from gnc. It ends whey something amp 60 because it has 20 g of protein and less carbs. Taste similar to chocolate like milk and keep me full for exactly 3 hrs. Greatest thing if you don't like it you can return it or exchange it.

I am so excited about the lovely word called approval. I was approved on Tuesday, April 20th and I have my preop appointment scheduled for April 28th and banding 1-2 after the preop appointment. I'm so excited and I'm just ready to do this.
