6 Weeks Post Op 6 Cc's



Recommended Posts

I had my 2nd fill yesterday, and would like to know how long after a fill did anyone feel restriction. Ive been reading that it sometimes take a few days to actually feel restriction after the fill.

It can take up to 2 weeks for a fill to take affect. FYI took me until 10.6 CC's to get restriction so don't be frustrated if this does not do it for you.

I also feel it immediately. I started to notice light restriction at 4cc and am now at 4.5cc with a little more. I go in next week for another fill and am hoping for another .5 or 1cc.

I feel it immediately also. But be sure to follow your doctors instructions as far as liquids/mushies after the fill... I failed to do that after my second and paid the price. My tummy got swollen and MAAAD at me so I was on liquids for three days, instead of one. Haha

      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.
