Well I went for my 3rd fill last night and they now want to throw a parade in my honor...hahahaha. No but seriously since my last visit on Jan 7th I have lost 18 lbs. The PA was thrilled with my progress and thought I was nuts when I said I would like to try an adjustment. After some sweet talking she agreed to give me a small one. She gave me 1cc which brings me up to 7 total. I only had Soup last night and a cup of greek yogurt so far today so too early to tell about any restriction but am looking forward to my first meal to see how it feels. Thanks to everyone for all the good luck messages yesterday also, your support it greatly appreciated!!!!!

I thought I felt some restriction in the first couple days after the 2nd fill but not really sure, I just seem to be eating right and a lot less then I used and I'm in the gym a couple days a week. But I felt like if I wanted to eat more I could but really tried hard to behave myself. Hopefully now I will have good restriction and the pounds just keep falling off.

That is so cool! You should be super proud of yourself!! I know that my big issue right now is exercise....I need to find time to get it in everyday. My schedule is so hectic that I always seem to find an excuse as to why I can't do it! :thumbup: I'm sure that moving my butt would seriously help the pounds come off a lot faster. Keep up the incredible work!!! And thank you for sharing!!! :thumbup:

Wow... Congratulations! Thats awesome... I went in yesterday and didn't get a 3rd fill... I can barely eat as it is so he said just give him a call when I feel like I need another... I think I actually gained a pound or two the first week after my second fill because I could only get cream Soup down and I was having a cup of soup like every 90 minutes or so because I was getting hungry so fast, but the second week, things loosened up a bit and I was able to eat very carefully and by the time I went back to the Dr. after the two weeks I had a 3 pound lose from the prior visit...

Keep us updated... Your doing great....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
