Topic: RE: getting ready
I having my surgery on the 12th.  My family isn't as bad about trying to feed me as I am!  I am having some serious cravings for all of these things that I love.   Im trying to remain calm and leave these bad foods alone!  Right now my thoughts are on a bowl of homemade salsa and some chips!  LOL!  I may end up making that though....thats better than a pizza I guess!

I go for my preop next week....but I don't think that I have to start the liquids until the 1st or 2nd. 


Anyway, good luck with your surgery!  There are several of us with these May dates to keep each other motivated!

Topic: May 5 Surgery - Protein Shake questions
This is my first post.  I am set for lap band May 5.  I started my protein shakes today.  I have to say this is hard.  I have always had an aversion to powdered drink mixes so this is a challenge.  I would love suggestions to make them better.  This is just my first day on them so I am learning.  I found out real fast I do not like them really thick.  Threw that up.  Second one was better.  The last two have stayed down.  I just wish I liked them.
