2nd fill and not sure how I should feel



Recommended Posts

I had the second fill this morning one more cc up to a total of 5 ½ cc in a 10 cc band

Am feeling kind of down…I was 230 at surgery and 219 a week and a half ago and 222.6 this morning, am have major pms and bloating (period is a day late) was told the surgery may mess it up for a few months. Wonder why this is the anesthia or the actual cutting that messes up your hormones

I am eating much less but can’t follow the 1000 calories yet… hope after today I will

The PA says i am normal, for most people 2 or 3 fills then the weight comes off easy

Just wish it was faster….i know shouldn’t , it may will take a while but in the back on my mind I wonder if I am failing again… I guess a history of failing at diets has messed up my confidence along with my metabalisim

Also brusied a bone in my foot this weekend in a lot of pain and forgot my pill crusger at home so I can’t even take any tylenol

I know it will get better but just feeling down

Hi Helen098, Try not to be so down on yourself. My doc told me that around "that time" 3-5 lbs extra is normal and while we never want to see those extra lbs its not as bad as you may think. My cycle was out of whack for several months after getting banded.

I have been having that "failing feeling" a lot and with good reason but the main thing is for us to remember that we have been blessed with this tool and this time WE CAN GET THERE!!! One day at a time ;) Slow and steady wins the race right?

Hope u cheer up soon :D

      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.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.

        I'm so sorry. I lost my pup (Mr. Bitters - a chocolate Pomeranian) 2 years ago and it still makes me tear up. He was my everything - my constant companion. I understand. Do the best you can to get back on track.
