1 pointI put off getting my first fill for a long time because I was doing well and didn't think I needed it. Well I finally broke down and got it. In the 2.5 weeks it took me to get in after I made the appt I fell off the wagon and gained a few pounds. I finally got it last Thursday, and I already know one will not be enough. How long do you guys wait bewteen fills??

I actually eat Lean Cuisine, Smart Ones, or Healthy Choice. They're the perfect portion for us bandsters. I'm having one tonight for dinner even. -

Roughly 115 cals / 10 fat / 4 carb / 8 protein based on how I made it. That will change depending on what other add-ins are included. -

2 Week Pre-Op Diet Question
sunshineinbama reacted to Maddy1 for a post in a topic
Some days I just couldn't get them all down as well. It works out. I also struggled to get in all the protein and fluid after surgery. Now I am one month out and its fine. Just hang in there and do the best you can. -

Emotional Mess
Holly Dolly reacted to batiircabur for a post in a topic
I 100% can relate. I literally minutes ago told my husband my emotions are everywhere. I'm on day 3 and have a headache and slight nausea the whole time. I cant believe food had that big of hold on me...now its just pissed and doing what it can to make me shove food in. We can do this!!! We have to push through it, we are in it till the end. Good luck! -

What Are You Goals With The Lap Band?
sunshineinbama reacted to readytogoforit for a post in a topic
my goal is to be a healthy woman without 100 lbs of extra weight! -
1 pointI always weigh first thing after I pee in the morning. My scale and my doctors scale is exactly 2lbs different. I would stick to the same scales and weigh only before you have eaten or drank anything. There are days where I have gotten on the scale thinking how in the world did I gain 4lbs today? Then I remember that I ate dinner and then worked out and drank a couple bottles of water. The next morning I'm back to normal and hopefully a little lighter. Good luck on your journey!!

Emotions
LittleGirlBlue reacted to ArmyW!feLori for a post in a topic
I had a time right after surgery where I cried. For me I went through a period of "mourning" for the food I wasn't going to be able to eat anymore and having regrets about what I did. My doctor did warn me that it might happen. It went away once I got the hang of how I'm supposed to eat AND the weight started coming off. It does get better!
