4th fill update !



Recommended Posts

just to let everyone know that since my 4th fill (feb 24th) with dr.martinez in mexico i have weighed myself twice and lost 3lb the first week and just weighed in again and lost another 3lb i am happy that the scales are going in the right direction . i have trouble with most meat and can only really eat shrimp and scallops and ground beef which is hard for me as i am a real meat eater but obvious now why i am a chunky monkey !! i have strong morning restriction and less in the evening but thats fine by me, i still have my ten chins and a fanny pack but hopefully this is on the way out by the summer and might even get to wear some of these cute tops that are out now without looking like a plane about to take off (arm wings) ha ha . well i am on top of the world today people and just to let everyone know this is the first good weight loss in a year and a half so to all those bansters that think fills don't make a difference ,, keep with it and don't give up and if you can still eat like a horse like i did at fill 3 you may just need that one more fill to make all the difference !!

on cloud nine today bansters and nobodys bringing me down !!!!!!:)

      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.
