    I agree with not liking chalky, off flavored and also for me is consistency. I like them to be slightly thicker. Not watery so I'm not into the scoop and shake method. I think that is why I generally go for the premade shakes so I feel like I'm getting more of the thicker milkshake I so miss.

    I chose not to get the digital display worn on the wrist too. I guess it could be a motivator to get moving and see the burned calories increase but didnt seem worth the extra $$ either.

    These are all great... keep them coming. I am still on the 21 day liquid diet and was out and about yesterday. I picked up a cold Chocolate Milk Pro-Nos. 17oz at 200 cals. I was suprised... pretty tasty. I couldnt finish it so I'm sipping on it now......

    I thought I'd start this since I'm always seeing people state their faves in different threads........

    I'm getting random hiccups through out the day. Its only 1 maybe 2 but never more. I thinking I may be taking my fluids too fast since I'm 10 days post op. Anyone else experience this? ~laura

    So glad you are doing so well. I'm doing good on my 7th day post-op. I thought it would be harder than I thought but with the band just sitting there... it already gives restriction. I'm sure when I get closer to the first fill, I'll be thinking differently and my appetite will be back. Congrats and keep us posted. ~laura

    wow.. yeah. I dont even want to try gum. Makes sense and not worth the pain.
  20. IrishRN
    You look fantastic!!!

    I did not hear anything about the first 3. The no straws is understandable as it can produce more air and burping but no gum or hard candy i had not been told.

    So I wanted to explain the symptoms I'm having. I figured I'm just getting used to the band and being 2 days post op. I woke up feeling a little tightness every once in a while that comes and goes. Same place where the band is. I'm drinking a little coffee to warm it up and it seems to be helping. Anyone experience this post op? btw... the coffee is definately helping!
  23. IrishRN
    Awwe thanks! I'm amazed that I'm not hungry.. but I'm sure I will be.. lookin forward to chew chew chew after all this liquid is done. Dr Ortiz said just the mere fact that the band is there gives some restriction for a little time.

    Thanks everyone! I'm finally home now. Getting across the board was very easy. The first day we were there it was very quiet in town with everything shut down but by the time I left today... it was very busy. People seemed really happy too. I had a great experience in the city and at the Lucerna... which has Starbucks across the street.... I had a vanilla latte the day before surgery! yum. So far so good though.. sipping on some broth and watching the Lakers own the Rockets!

    Hi all.. I came down last nite and did preop work and just had surgery today. Ive been out for about an hour now and everything is as good as you hear...fantastic. The staff and Dr Ortiz and all the teaching that they do do baby that band. I plan to stay tonight and go home tomorrow since i live local. Will check in later gotta go drink some juice. ~laura
