With a BMI of 46 I am anxiously waiting for my surgery date here in Missouri with Dr. Scott. I have been reading almost every post for all the tidbits of info I can get. Thank you TLC/Big medicine.

Like you, I have passed all the hurdles and am now waiting...waiting...waiting. It seems like forever when you want/need something so badly.

It's been a more than 2 year process for me, but I haven't been able to decide between the Gastric Bypass (dangerous but effective) versus the Lap Band (less dangerous but perhaps less effective!)

I have a surgery date - july 31st. I start on the liquids 7/17. Have been trying differant protein supplements to find the ones I like best. So far its a Walmart off brand chocolate mixed in 4 oz light soy milk for 20 grams protein per scoop.
