I had my !st fill. I was so nervous about the procedure. It wasnt that bad. They had me drink Water afterwards, and I thought I could feel a little difference. But now after a few days it feels like I did b4 the fill!:)

That is what happened to me. It has taken me until my 3rd fill to get good restriction. I hope it stays as I was just filled on Wednesday.

Keep up the hard work.

I have my first fill on May 2nd and I cant wait! I was banded on March 31st and I have been able to eat anything I want since about a week and a half after surgery. I hope and pray I'll get some restriction from the fill. Does anyone know, If your having your fill and you dont feel much restriction can you request that the Dr. put in more in that same visit?

Thanks! And best of luck to everyone!!!

I have only had one fill and I still get hungry too often. But I have been trying really hard to drink at least two sometimes three Protein Shakes and I went from a standstill weight to losing six pounds in two days. But I am very impatient with my weight loss so far.

      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.
