Whoo hooo, Congratulations!! I was banded 3/11 and I love it.

I drank the Isopure instead of the shakes. Its a clear liquid in a 20 oz bottle, it comes in different flavors and it has no sugar and 40 grams of protein per bottle. You can get it at GNC, and it tastes really good over ice. Good Luck!!

I live in Valencia and am just doing my research. Who did you surgery? Do you know who is supposed to be a good surgeon in the LA area?

I am in the process of qualifying for surgery. I'm looking for some positive feedback on lapband and you seem to be happy. Any regrets? Is it hard? I see a lot of issues from people on this website? Would love some to hear the good points. I need to lose approximately 100 lbs as well.
