Message #177 of 1024 |

I am approaching my lap band surgery date and realize this entails a total eating change. A couple of questions are: are the protein "shakes", etc for life; and after 6 months to a year what is the anticipated portion size and content of meals? I guess the question is really can you ever eat a piece of chicken, potato salad & deviled egg; BLT Sandwich, or salad and a slice of pizza? Thanks. GG
