I was banded 12/02 by Dr. Rick Fromm in Dalton, too! He is absolutely great!

To date, almost 7 months later, I have lost 65 1/2 pounds!

WONDERFUL weight loss! How are you doing it? I'm 3 weeks post-op and I haven't lost a pound since the first week. What am I doing wrong?

Melly:confused:

Use these rules:

Protein first...

Veggies second...

A dab of carbs, if you still have room.

Stop when you're full.

60-70 ounces of Water per day.

Never get hungry! It's great!

I even occasionally splurge, and still lose weight. By splurge, I mean eat something sweet.

I've gone down 8 inches in the waist, 2 shirt sizes, and 3 suit sizes. My shoes are even loose!

      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.
