I am new to this so I am really not sure what to say?? I guess I will start with I am 38yrs. old with 3 children and have battled obesity most of my life. I had the Lap-band surgery in June '08 and without much complications. My biggest obstacle is getting enough protein in so that is why I turned to here for some recommendations. Any suggestions are welcomed!!!

eggs, tuna, chicken, lowfat cheese, beans...are all good protein sources. Good luck on your journey, I know mine had been wonderful!!

I just had surgery today, but I do like the fruit punch 100% whey protein shot sold at walmart for about 1.67 for the 24g. It tastes great if you put it in crystal light fruit punch, you do not even know that it is there. They also sell these on the internet. I know you should be eating your protein, but a girl has go to drink and these are a nice break from a thick shake. Hope this helps. Chrisy
