Coming up on 4 weeks out from surgery! Feeling pretty good except I am HUNGRY! The days I can manage ok but the nights SUCK! I WANT TO START ON THIS FILL JOURNEY!!

Damn having to wait another nearly 4 weeks for my 1st fill!!!

SIGH I will manage!

Oh Dear God! There is no way that I could make it 8 weeks without a fill. I feel soooooooo sorry for you. I'm eating probably 80% of what I ate before the band. 1000 calories a day...forget it! Not gonna happen! I'm starving! I have no restriction and, as history has shown, I have no willpower after about 3 or 4 weeks on any diet.

I was able to talk my doctor in to seeing me for a fill at 5 weeks instead of 6. I have a new boss starting October 1st and I didn't want to be out of the office that first week. I go Monday! I'm praying that I'll be one of the "lucky" ones and that my first fill helps at least a teensy bit. I see where some folks have just gotten their 2nd and are only now starting to be limited a little. My band, Stanley, is probably going to turn out to be a very naughty little band-boy and want 5 or 6 fills before he is happy. It would be just my luck.

Hang in there sister...we're better off than we were a year ago!

Thanks Lanakila...I'll be ok it's just going to be hard!

I am eating less which is probably contributing to my hunger but I am trying to stick to what my doc has said...I'm just tring to make the right choices hunger or no and if I need another meal throughout the day so be it!!

Dad is also starving though he is going in the week before me for his fill (I couldn't get an appt that would work with my work!). Dad has actually gained some weight back, so at least I haven't done that :crying:~ I am hoping that his fill will help him too!

I hope your fill goes well and you get some restriction!!
