I have a Fill appointment this week...



Recommended Posts

I finally have another fill appointment this week and I am just not looking forward to it. I hope to actually get the fill, because even though I can go for quite awhile without eating sometimes, I'm hoping for more restriction. I only have about 3cc's in my 10cc band. ...but, I also don't like feeling uncomfortable like I do after a fill. Last time the PA had a little trouble with finding the spot on the port to inject the saline.

I'd really like more restriction, because it has been a struggle the last couple of months. I'd like my weight loss to start coming off a little faster again. Yes, I do exercise everday for about 45 minutes, with the exception of the weekend, when I usually do just a lot of squats, stretches, arm weights & some walking.

I think I need a little encouragment to make sure I stick with making the best food choices I can.

I hope your fill goes well and there isn't any trouble finding the port. What do you generally eat? Are you hoping for more restriction so you'll eat less or more restriction so your choices are limited? Either way, I'll keep my fingers crossed for a good experience.

I try to eat healthy, although I probably do eat a little more starchy foods than I should. I'm working on cutting back on that. I think generally I do pretty good with my food choices.

Although I don't feel that I overeat, I think I'm hoping for more restriction so that I'll eat less. I normally eat a cup of food. I have a lot of trouble thinking of only eating 3/4 cup of food for every meal.

Thanks for your input.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
