    Hi there!! I just starte-od my pre-op yesterday, and tried the ZOIC protein drink. It taste really good, and especially for post-op I think it will be beneficial to help get in the protein. Also, it is low in calories. Does anyone else have another drink they like? Here is the stats: Calorie: 110 total fat: 1 total carbs: 5 Protein 21

    Thanks for the advice - i think I'll end up going back to TJ also. How long after the first fill do you need to wait to get the second?

    Thanks for the encouragement. Today is my first day of cutting back. It is noon and I have only had one. I get one this afternoon, and then tomorrow only one until surgery day = May 7th. Congratulations on making the decision for your surgery!

    Congratulations on your weight loss!! You look great! I belly dance, also. I have been off and on for about 2 years now. I can't wait to wear the little bitty tops like some of the others. One advantage to being bigger though, I can roll a quarter on my stomach!

    How do you know a good fill from a bad one? Is there a certain technique I should look for?

    Hello, I have a question regarding the success of lap banders. As I read this site and others I see that some people are tremendously successful and others only lose a few pounds and insist they are following the diet perfectly. Do you think having a fill done properly is the key to success? Or is there such thing as a bad fill? I am so worried I will once again fail at dieting and be fat for the rest of my life.... I will be getting fills in South Florida. Does anyone have a Dr. in this area they would recommend?

    Hi there!! I was just wondering if any of you have experienced a fill outside of TJ and then returned to TJ for a fill? Is there a difference in where and who does the fill? Or, are all fills created equal? I have my banding May 7th, and am still contemplating where to go for fills. I live in South Florida so traveling back and forth to TJ could get expensive. Any suggestions?

    Congratulations!!! I know you'll do great - look, you're already down 10, and this is the last time you will ever have to lose those unwanted pounds. I start mine tomorrow and I'm trying not to freak out today, since it is my last "meal" in a while. Where there's pain there's gain!!

    Hi there!! I'll be there May 6 - 9 and I'll be alone also. I'm really nervous, but I'm sure we will be OK - I should be back at the hotel on the 8th, so look for me

    Thanks, I haven't spoken to Dr. Miranda yet. I just scheduled with Lori on Saturday and said I wanted to have the surgery asap and she was able to get me into a cancellation they have. I feel a little lost. It is so sudden, but I've been thinking about this for so long. Are you going alone, or with someone?

    Hi there, I'm starting my pre-diet tomorrow and my surgery is May 7th. Do you have to use the opti-fast, or will any protein shake work?
  17. Jacqui1
    I'm arriving on the 6th and having surgery on the 7th - I'm starting to get nervous!!! Good luck!!
