Two and a half weeks, two and a half months, two and a half years?? If it's weeks and you've lost ten, wow!!! If it's months and you've lost ten, still not too bad considering all the swelling and healing from surgery. If it's years, then you've got something to be down about!

Don't feel bad i get my first fill on 7/12, i've only lost 12 lbs in the process, they tell me that i should start losing once i get that first fill and excercise regularly and "EAT THE RIGHT FOODS" which i'm sticking to so we'll see what happens after that.... :unsure:

I think you are doing pretty good. You still have 2 more weeks to loose before your fill so you will probably be at 15 to 20 for your first month. You are half way there!

I was banded on june 11th and have only lost 7 pounds since surgery. Sounds like your doing great. I get my first fill on july 17. I am not to concerned it takes time and i am not going to stress over only 7 pounds. Seven pounds is seven pounds. I am happy with that for only two and a half weeks. Since i started the whole process last november i have lost a total of 33 pounds and i feel great about were i am at. We will all get there!

Really? 10 lbs in 2.5 weeks? Do you know we should expect 1-2 pounds per week AFTER we reach the proper fill level, many months into the process.

Do you want to know how much I had lost at 2.5 weeks? 4 pounds, and that was from week 1. At 2 months when I got my first fill, I was down about 5 lbs. I did not start losing until about 6 months out, after my 3rd fill. This is NOT quick weight loss like bypass.

      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?

      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.
