Recommended Posts

Well I had my surgery on May 31st... I was down 21.5lbs last week. On Monday I got stuck and I had to go in and the Dr. completely deflated my band.. 3.75cc out. I am going crazy, I needed more of a fill anyway, and now with it out I feel so defeated. I have an appt this coming monday.. Do you think I'll be able to get all of my Fluid back in? I am still eating like I had fluid in the band but its so hard!! I just feel like all of this, everything I have worked so hard for is gone. Also did any of you gain a lb or two when you were allowed to eat regular foods again?

I gained 1.5 poounds when I started eating solids.

I had surgery a month ago today.

I lost the 1.5 pounds in the last few days again once I stopped with the carbs.

I have lost about 15 pounds. I was at 218 the day of my pre-op diet and I am at 203 now.

I am a litte flustered, I want to lose more.

I have 4 ccs in and I have my first follow-up on the 28th with the surgeon and I have my first feel on July 6th.

I hope you get resolution.

Congrats on the 21.5!

      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.
