Four Weeks Post-op and Hungry!!
lml398 replied to bbammom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all , I went and had my 1st fill.It was weird, they couldnt find my port so they were poking around for awhile,Its not painful just a weird feeling like u can feel the liquid going through. The doc said iam going really well and 8kilos is great 4 weeks post op.I have to be on liquids for 3days after fill then mushies for 3 and then normal.I was feeling quite queasy after the fill for a few hours but after then was as normal. I also saw the dietitian and said just keep doing what im doing but i have to add more carbs into my diet. Also said dont be scare for having bread(not white doughy),cracker,rice and Pasta.Just 1/2cup at a time.Try it and if it doesnt go down try it again.All in all feeling pretty good but not liking the liquids for 3 days Iam so damn hungry!!! Hope everyone is doing great and iam definitly feeling more positive about everything. OH and i also got the all clear to start exercising just limit situps if it hurts.So im going to join my gym down the road and start working my bum off (literally) :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: -

Im so glad i found this post, I was feeling like a failure as ive only lost 5kgs since surgery 30/8 and doing everything right but the scales still staying the same.I feel a lot better that this is normal now. Luckily i have my 1st fill tomoro and dietitian as well hopefully that will help. I am brides maid in 4 weeks and hoping to loose some more. Good luck to everyone -

I was banded on 8/26 and noticed on day 7 that I started missing food:( I am on three weeks of liquids before mushies. It is hardest when I make my hubby something to eat. I was told that the stomach should not have to work to digest anything until it is healed and that bit of info. scared me strait:) good luck

Sounds like everyone is going well.I also do a shopping trip yesterday as i felt good and im feeling it today.So So sore.Iam realising my weak point to food today.as ive been feeling pretty low today all i wanted to do is eat eat eat but i have settle myself by just keeping a drink in one hand and remembering why i wanted this and that its not going to be easy. Has anyone else had these feeling too?And how have you dealt with them Im mainly having Protein shakes and v8 juice with soup for dinner.I supposed to be on liquids for 2 weeks but i feel like i could stomach mushies
