Newbie who is 15 weeks post surgery



Recommended Posts

Hello

I am a newbie to this site. I am 15 weeks post surgery. I am starting to get really frustrated. I am not feeling very little to no restriction. My husband has even said to me that he is not seeing a difference in how much I eat. I have had several fills and I believe I have 9ccs in my 11cc band. I am just wondering if anyone out there has been through the same thing? I have only lost 12 pounds and now I am stuck..... I losse 3 pounds then within a couple days I gain it right back. I just want to CRY!

I'm sorry you are going through such a rough time. Have you spoken to your doctor about not feeling any different? Maybe they need to do a fill under flouroscopy to make sure everything is as it should be.

Their is a machine called Fluoroscope "X-RAY for your Organs, and the Band. "

Tell your Dr. That you want to be filled under Fluoroscope He/ and you will watch the whole thing.

If there is a Problem it will show up.

Since your under the Scope, tell him to fill you to your fill line. "Yes you have one, and he can do this" then you will know what you have in the Band.

You should feel Restriction, when they give you a Glass of Water to Drink.

This is what I had done, I hope it works for you..

      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.
