Thanks! Today I woke up extremely nervous. I can't believe how fast time flys. I'm super hungry and the Protein shakes with on meal is not cutting it. How can I make my shakes more filling?

New to the site and just made the decision to be banded. Getting full support from my family and friends and am doing as much research ad possible. I go for my information seminar on Dec 19th. My goal is to lose 115 pounds and run a full marathon! Excited to meet new friends here and find out what works and what doesnt when it comes to eating.

Im new to this site, but I have been banded since Jan. 13 2010. Not much success. I only have 4.5cc in. I have been up to 6cc and could not tolerate it. Im a bit discouraged

Gigi, I will run the marathon with you! You pick where and I'm coming! I've been looking for someone who will run one with me! Only thing is, I'm an accountant so I can't run one in feb-may.

I was banded 10/5. I was training last year for NWM 2011 when I hurt my back. Have to get under 200 to start running again. I absolutely love it though!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
