OK, had a big fill a week and 1/2 ago. The doc put in 1.2. Finally have some feeling of restriction. I have only gained since being rebanded in March. ( I had a slip) I replaced the battery in my scale and have been doing some cardio and band exercises and am down 4 lbs. This is much harder the 2nd time around. Doc said it is because we pick up bad habits from testing the band and know what we THINK we can get away with, but the scale tells the story.

In that time, since the fill, I have also broken up with my boyfriend of long standing rather suddenly. The exercise is keeping endorphins flowing and I punch his face with each stretch of my resistance bands. LOL

Hanging in there and not letting food be my crutch through a tough time.

I need to. It is important to 'know' people who are dealing with the same issues. The stress diet is really working. LOL

      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.
