I have 7mls and am waiting on anothe fill. Why pictures of your meals?

Thanks did yout surgeon recommended that you count calories. I was told to eat low GI 3 times a day but its very confusing and I am still hungry between meals so end up snacking.

Still not feeling the restriction I hoped to have. Have had my first fill 1.5 weeks ago. I have a 10ml band and have 7mls. So a combination of disappointment, PMT and being busy at work has ended up being a bad week food wise [emoji22] [emoji22]

Thank you. Hope I can get an appointment for another fill soon. How many mls untill the band is working properly?

I am now at 7mls but not feeling the restriction I hoped to have. The first few days were great after the fill but now that the swelling has settled I dont feel as much restriction as I hoped.

I had my first fill on Tuesday which took my 10ml band up to 7mls. I had really good restriction until today. My support team said that restriction can be delayed? or I was wondering can not drinking enough make your band feel looser the next day? I didn't drink enough water yestday and had a headache this morning.

yeah is much tighter I can feel proper restriction now. I dont know if it will stay the same or get loser or tighter over tge next few days thou? support team said it might just stay the same or get tighter?

I am week 4-5 post op and I am starting to be really hungry and slip back into bad habits. I am still on soft foods but think I would be more full if I could eat normal food. I have my fill appointment on the 14th but my band was put in with 4 mls in it. Will another fill make a diffrence? How much do they normally put in at each fill? I am in the uk.

It was ok got 3ml added so up to 7ml now. I am on liquids today still and soft diet tomorrow before I start on a normal diet. I am not hungry at all now but feel tired from not eating x

How much weight should we be aiming to lose each week after the post op period?

I am finding this very difficult am 8 days post op. My post op diet is now blended foods for 2 weeks which is better tha liquids but i am missing food. On Friday i took my son to the cinema and had ice cream and have eaten some small pieces of chocolate. I dont want to cheat at this but feel like i have given up my comfort in life. My band was put in with 4ml fill in it already but i dont feel too much restriction as i could drink freely after the first couple of days and i feel hungry.

Hi I am due to get my band on the 4th of February my starting BMI is 33 I am in the slim fast pre op diet which is 3 shakes a day about 600 calories. I feel like that is not enough as I have seen other diets which are more?? Sent from my SM-G925F using the BariatricPal App

Oh well I plan on enjoying my night away tonight then and will do pre op diet for 1 week from tomorrow. I thought that it should be based on individual but my surgeon said that everyone has to do it. Sent from my SM-G925F using the BariatricPal App

Today was a good day. How was your day? Keep reading that the lower your bmi the easier the pre op diet should be but my surgeon gas the same diet plans regardless of weight. Only problem I have is tomorrow I am going to a lovely hotel for the day/night with my BF that was booked for my Christmas x Sent from my SM-G925F using the BariatricPal App
