Time for a fill



Recommended Posts

B):rolleyes: :rolleyes: I have been able to eat pretty much anything for the last month as long as I take tiny bites and chew chew chew. When I can eat small amounts of bread its time for a fill. Going this week can't wait till i'm all tight. Not sure how much to get I have 3ccs in my band. The last fill I got 1cc and was tight for a good while almost to tight. Leaving for vacation in a week and half so I don't want to over due it. My drs office is 2 hours away so I won't be going back for an unfill before I leave for vacation don't have enough hours in the day to schedule that. So what do u guys think 1cc or half. i do want to be really tight cause vacations people tend to eat more and gain. But then agian I don't want to be missreable. So Lets see who thinks 1cc? who thinks half cc? whichever with most votes I'm gonna do cause I can't make up my mind.

i need to lose weight on vacation have an appointment with ps when get back. Have to have a huge double hernia surgery in Dec so my Dr has recomennded me get a full Tummy Tuck at the same time. he says the hernia is so huge that when he puts my intestence back the skin hanging will pull down effect. That could cause the hernia to come back. he is going to try and get it approved by my insurance. But they usually won't cover it. But I am prepared to pay for it if they won't. My hernia has gotta so bad i need to have it done soon as possible. and while my deductable is met. So I'm gonna put it off till his last surgery in Dec too by me some more weight loss time. I want to weigh at least 170 wish I could pull off 160 but I don't have enough time. Already doing all the exersise and dieting that I can fit into each day with work and the kids and my other resposibilitys. SO GUYS NEED YOUR HELP WHAT DO U THINK? B)

      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.
