Going in for my 2nd fill today. I have been stuck at the same post surgery weight, is that normal? 1st fill was 2.5cc. What is the average amount of fills to get to the green zone? Hoping with my fill today I can have a BIG decrease in my appetite....Fingrts crossed!!!

No such thing as an average. Every patient will be different. It took me 6 fills to get there.

I lost 12 lbs the first 2 weeks and then nothing for 3.5 months. Every bandster has a different story to tell. I would say your journey is quite normal.

Good morning it took me about 4 fills to get any really restriciton and 6 to be at my green zone. Its diffrent for everyone and it LB is process that takes a very long time in a lot of cases to see real weight loss. I would encourge you to speak with you doctor and ask him how does he or she feel about giving you a larger fill than they normally would to help you get there sooner. I did this on my 4th fill when I was completly frustrated and upset with my slow progress and he was happy to help, sometimes you just have to push the doctor a little to get you there. Hope this helps and good luck.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
