Dec 4 here. I started drinking muscle milk as its in my pre-op book of choices. Love it!! But I was googling it to see the vita/nutri and there are actually being investigated and may be taken off the shelf. Figures once I like something so good and its lite it has arsenic, cadium, mercury etc high levels if you drink 2 much a day.

I heard about 310 shake? Anyone take that?

Dr. Cohen told me to start my pre-op diet On Nov 27 5 days before surgery.......

Muscle Milk Lite is not being removed from shelves & does not have mercury in them. I've been in contact with Sam's Club, Target, Shop Rite, Walmart & they are not removing from shelves. My Doctors office did research as well & said they've heard nothing & also made a few calls & said they've heard nothing of the sort. This may be a started rumor gone badd.

Good luck to all upcoming surgeries & you'll all so just fine. I've been Banded since 12/22/10 & I don't regret it. I'm happy that I did it. Good Luck all & much success.

I live in Fort Worth and my sugery is set for December 6th. I started my pre op diet today, so far so good! I was suppose to start on Thanksgiving day, but I didn't want to explain to my extended family why I wasn't eating. I'm going through True Results in Hurst, they've been extremely nice and helpful. I am starting to have some anxiety about the surgery. Not the lapband itself, but the IV! Of all things, I know. I have rolling veins so I'm starting to drink a lot of Water now!

I would like to lose about 75 pounds.

My husband had the sugery a month ago and he's lost a little over 30 pounds. He's done so good!

Hi ladies, I'm already banded but going to have surgery to fix it as originally my tubing had a leak but now has broke so its in two. Any way after bring banded I fell pregnant almost straight away so haven't had a previous fill/weight loss other than during my pre op diet. So technically I'm starting from scratch, my surgery date is December 24th :-o I have four children, so think it's rubbish, leaving them on Christmas Eve, I'm really scared too, secretly looking forward to it but trying not to get my hopes up because I've not had much luck up to know with it having a leak and what not. Again really scared :-( lol x

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
