sick of shakes and need some support. Scheduled for April 30th.

I am so sick of these shakes. They upset my stomach and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I seem to be getting questioned alot about my decision to have the lapband and this is starting to get old. I really feel like it is the right thing for me to do and I just need some encouragement.

Im drinking those stupid shakes also I have found I can tolerate carnation instant breakfast sugar free and eas makes a low carb shake thats o.K. Just hang in there it will get better my deitian said that this liqid diet will take the wind out of your sails but a couple of weeks post surgury you will feel like you have been given a energy shot

thanks for the encouragement. I am praying that I make it through this. My surgery date is April 30th so just a week to go. I hope that I won't be so hungry after the band is put on. Do you know anything about that? Mary

Hooray for you!!! Your big day is just a few days away. My Lap Band surgery was 4/22 and overall I'm doing well. Just stuck a shake in the freezer to get it iced up a bit. Starting to get old?- a little bit, but so much how we feel is found between our two ears. I added cream of chicken soup to my daily list of foods yesterday- OK it was well drained and diluted heavily with chicken broth, but it was satisfying. Be sure to have a variety of things on hand. I'm so thankful for popsicles!! Who would have thought! I really am not that hungry and I know great things are in store. I wish you the VERY BEST and will be thinking of you Wednesday morning! Peace.
