Got a fill but still eatting and not losing?



Recommended Posts

Okay, I am down 25 pounds. The scales have not really moved in over a month. I got my first fill last Tuesday. I eatting but am not feeling stuffed full that I thought I would be feeling. I was filled 1.5cc and my stomach is 1 ounce?

I know I'm eatting more than one ounce at a time.

Any suggestions here?

I am starting Curves in the morning and I'm hoping that just more excersise will get the scales moving again?

Like now I think I'm hungery? I could eat now...

I've have today:

1-6oz glass oj--Breakfast

Lunch-

rib meat 8 to 10 small bites

3 tablespoons mash potato

1 teaspoon applesauce

walked outside working hanging christmas lights

dinner

1/2 cup refried bean, cheese, cream cheese with 4 chip

snack

6 bites pieces of carmel corn-*I know I should have passed*

I have also had 6- 8oz glasses of tea with lots of ice

What am I doing wrong? Does this sound normal for just getting a fill?

HELP!!!

:cry

You are doing nothing wrong. Yes, it is normal after the first fill, even the second, even the third. For me, I may have true restriction after my second (2.7ccs in a 4cc band).

Congrats on your 25 pound weight loss. If you continue to plateau and you know it's not the amount or the kind of food you are eating, then another fill may be in order.

You're doing great!

Here's what I noticed. You are eating too much sugar. Fruits and carbs are sugar. juice is really something to avoid because it's pure sugar to your body. If you're still healing than ignore me, but if you're not then you need to find more Protein and complex carbs to eat.

*Most of what I'm telling you I learned as gestation diabetic with my 2nd pregnancy.

BBQ sauce has sugar added, so in addition to the other sugar foods you ate with dinner you are on sugar overload.

Your doing just fine!!! And normally the amount of food is measured after the chewing.. not before.

If your on a plateau the weight is not getting less but surely your measurements are.

Congrats on ur weightloss!!!!!

      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.
