Had My 1St Fill Today!



Recommended Posts

Had my first fill today! I am very excited to see my restriction and start losing more weight! I have lost 23 lbs in two mths and I'm excited! I am beginning to see a lot of negativity on the forum and I do not like it lol! Be POSITIVE people! I had some restriction after surgery so they put 1.2 cc's in today and it was neat to see, not painful at all! How is everyone else doing?

Hi there! I had a fill today too, but only a really baby one (.25 cc) because I had already had some in my band. I can tell a difference already! I've lost 23 pounds too since June 5, sounds like we're on the same happy track!!!

Good for you and your positive attitude, I know I REALLY appreciate it!

Keep up the great work!

D :)

Love the positive things happening to you. I am 3 years out and I love my life and my band. When I was in the losing stage my Dr called me his star patient and encouraged me to join his support gruop. I went once and I listend to all the whining and pi--ing and moaning and said this is just not for me. I wanted positivity and all they talked about is how they wanted a pizza. Hell everyone wants a pizza. they just don't have one.

Now after losing t he weight and maintaining that loss I can have a small well chewed small slice of pizza only now I just don't care, food is just food it's not my life anymore. SO good luck to you hope you keep your positive attitude and post it ....Doesn't mean you won't have hard days you will but you are on the right track..........

      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.
