Whoever said a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step was right. It isn't too late. Get back on the wagon right this moment. Follow your plan. You can do this!

In the beginning you will be able eat the same so you should try to restrict yourself just so you don't gain back all that weight you lost just to prepare for the surgury. After you have had more fills you will not able to eat the same so this is a good time to slowly get used to limiting yourself. Remember the lap bad gives you the opportunity to slowly get used to the lifestyle change.

Im totally in the same boat! I got banded 03/31/11 and I am starving! I am able to eat anything I want, there is a little discomfort if I eat too big of a portion, but not enough to make me not want to eat it lol. I want a fill so bad. Im trying so hard to eat small portions and stay on my pureed and just little pieces of fish and things like that. But its so hard. Im SO hungry! But Im trying to keep losing or at least maintain my 17 lbs loss, I dont want to gain it back, Good luck to you lady! :D I wish you the best, hang in there! Much love.

After my post-op healing and before my first fill, I went on a cruise. My surgeon said "Have fun!!!" He also told me to not worry if I gained some weight during that time. He doesn't put his patients on a food plan during that time.

Most people don't feel restriction prior to receiving fills. Do your best to eat right. Forgive yourself, move on!

You don't want to hurt your surgery ! That's why you are to eat certain foods.

I know your hungry, but once you start getting fills, your hunger will slowly go down,

This takes time..... fill after fill, and it will keep getting better. trust me.... But it takes time.

So get back on track o.k....

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
