3rd fill - Lost 2 pounds in 5 days



Recommended Posts

Uhhh, to those of you who say that fills don't matter...I beg to differ.

I was eating healthy and following the rules and losing at a slow crawl of about 2 pounds a month. Got my 3rd fill and whoa, everything's changed. I can only eat about a cup of food at a time, sometimes less and I've lost 2 pounds in 5 days now. Haven't done anything even close to that since pre -op.

Now I know what I should be maintaining as far as "restriction". Hate that word but don't know what else to call it..... :)

I have my 3rd fill on 5/16 and I am so hoping I will be in the same situation. It is almost as if I can feel something is about to happen but with 2 fills so far it has not really been the case.

Yay for you on the restriction and I hope I am right behind you!!

      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.
