My dietitian said something interesting to me on the last visit to her. She said that most of the time we mistake hunger pains with being thirsty. Maybe try drinking some water, well this works for me. Learn something new everyday.

Just wondering how much your first fill was. Mine was 5mls which I think is the same as 5cc

What are the pains from? Gas, fullness, or surgery?
whiteruffles replied to AZnikki's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would say that the pains are from the surgery, its a big surgery that you had. I was told by my doctor to have 50mls of any liquid every 30 mins for the first four days and then work your way up. At a meal you should be having 200mls by the end of the 2 weeks. But that is what my doctor told me, you might be different, but I would ring and ask your doctor. -

whiteruffles posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all, the subject says it all. I have had a friend who has been banded for awhile now, and she was saying that she thought that maybe 5mls for my first fill was way to much. I have a 9ml band also could anyone tell me if it is a small band or large band. :biggrin: It is also affecting my eating, Im not able to get much down......PLEASE help Thanks Amanda -
