Banded 14th march 2012 lost 51lb and 111lb in total with pre op diet

Can someone explain the filling up the bag? What exactlly is that and how often do you do that and what is it for? Also is this something you have to do forever.

Tx gabbystrong I really hope this process speeds up . I gave to admit I'm such a bad eater and have been eating very little . Need some advice in what to eat !!

I've lost 12 lbs since surgery, I wouldn't worry to much because a loss is better than a gain and besides if you notice some of the reported loss includes the pre op loss. We are doing good just stay positive you can't compare your loss to anyone else. Lots of factors to consider like how much was the start weight.

I was banded on 05/25/12 and have lost 12 pounds (including pre-op diet). Sort of worried that I have not lost more. At least I have not gained! That is a good thing, right? ^_^

I also have walked to work every day for the past 2 weeks and am working on getting into the habit of using MyFitnessPal. 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.
