Hi everyone. I had my surgery on 10/22/07. I've had some ups and downs this week with blood sugar problems, but overall feel I'm doing well and am planning to go back to work tomorrow. My dietician recommended the Syntrax Nectar protein powder, which I'm using. While the taste isn't too bad, the smell of it is awful (at least to me). Anyone have suggestions for another brand to try?

Congratulations!!! I myself was just banded on October 25/07. I am feeling great and since the start of my pre-op diet I have lost 9lbs.

Best of luck

Hi...I was banded on September 19th and am down 48lbs :clap2:since I started my liquid diet on September 4th. I use the IDS liquid whey protein the 42g. The fruit punch is delicious and the grape is also pretty good. It is kind of thick like jello water so I cut it a bit with water. You can get it from smoothie king to try but I order it online buying 2 cases at a time. I order it from supplementwarehouse.com. It doesn't smell bad unless something is wrong with it. Good luck :Dthis has been the best thing I ever did for myself. I have felt fabulous, no nausea, pain or hunger. It has been a blessing.

Good luck, Kerri
