I am a nervous wreck



Recommended Posts

I am having my first fill on Thursday, i am really nervous, I really do not have any restriction right now, i can eat anything, i am trying to not eat that much but i do not know what is going to happen after my fill, i have posted things on here before and have not gotten any feed back, i am asking for some advice please, i have not lost but 1.5 pounds since my surgery 8-25 and i am hoping that this fill is going to help me with some weight loss. Any help you can give will be well appreciated.

thanks

Deb

Just watch you portions, and listen to your stomach it will tell you when your not hungry, after my first fill i could tell a difference, but everyone is different, good luck

my surgery was 8/26. The only way I was able to lose any weight the first couple weeks was just to drink Protein Shakes and have Soup. First fill was only 1cc which disappointed me, but I stuck with the drinks a few days afterward and started eating some. Use a salad plate and don't eat any more. The first few fills are going to take a lot of willpower.

      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.
