First fill next week
mickeybeyes replied to BandedCandace's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My port felt higher than my incision after losing weight to. I am about 7 weeks post op and have had 2 fills. It seems higher when I stand up and lower when I lay down (weird I know). When the doctor did my fills he goes below my scar so I assume everything is just fine. Good luck to you! :-) -
Congratulations!! I love hearing good news about the band! It is very inspirational.

Surgery Thursday, liquid diet and cold feet.

I panicked before surgery too. Everything will fall into place. I too LOVE food and now I just enjoy it in smaller portions. I also co sleep with a very active 4 year old and never had an issue. Like everyone said....breathe!! You will do fine! :-) -

Feeling your port
mickeybeyes replied to ireallywannabthin's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor told me to feel it when I went in for my first post op visit. Until then I hadn't really tried because I am a big baby and was afraid. I could feel it right away without pushing down. Of course I got woozy the first time and it took me a bit before I felt it again but now I find myself feeling it a lot. Tried to get kids and parents to feel it but no takers.....lol. -

PROTEIN SHAKE RECIPES (A Must See)
mickeybeyes replied to PattyGirl66's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thank you sooooo much. My husband bought me the nutribullet for Christmas in preparation for my surgery (January 30). I have yet to use it for protein shakes. These look delicious!! I am printing it out too!! :-) -
Anyone have any restrictions on first fill?
mickeybeyes replied to Beth A's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great job with your success so far. I just had my first fill of 3.5cc and I am starving ( I am still on liquids though). I am hoping when I go to mushies the hunger will subside. Good luck to you. :-) -

First Fill.....
mickeybeyes replied to mickeybeyes's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks. I had 3.5cc put in my 10cc band. Not using flour. -
I had my first fill today and almost passed out. It didn't hurt or anything but I got myself all worked up and scared. I felt so silly after laying down with a cold compress.....I am such a baby. Anyway, my question is......I am starving....is that normal? I am on clear fluids for two days then full fluids for two and so on. Am I going to feel hungry the whole time? I thought I would feel full easy like after surgery. Thoughts??
