f1stborn 59 Posted August 24, 2012 I am 2 and half months post op n had one fill. This fill fills about right. Im only able to eat bout 700 ~1000 Cal a day .....but the last three days I have had no desire to eat. I have to make myself eat just to get nutrition but def not.for pleasure. I recently got into a jacuzzi n kind of.thought maybe the hot Water n stimuli made my band liquid tightet...I kno stupid.right ..I also think that maybe its BC im getting closer to my first.short term.goal that somehow.subconscious I so excited.that..tricking myself not to eat as much. Yesterday I at bout 550 n that was BC.I forced myself to eat an Oz or two of.chicken. What do u guys think Sent from my SGH-T989 using LapBandTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jen_1381 446 Posted August 24, 2012 How many cc's do you have in your band? If one fill got you to the green zone, consider yourself very lucky! Most people need a few fills to get to their green zone. Your apetite can come and go. Some days I struggle to get in 500 calories, other days I'm making myself work out extra hard because I've eaten more than usual, and am still starving! I'm not sure about a hot tub making the band tighter...I know a change in altitude, or stress, among other things, can make the band tighten. Maybe the heat does? I just embrace my hunger, or lack of. Each day is different. 1 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2muchfun 8,927 Posted August 24, 2012 Continuing to only get 550 calories a day may cause your body to go into starvation mode and you may not lose at all. You should try to keep that intake closer to 900 a day if you can? Of course, there are some who may lose weight this way but I don't see how you could exercise efficiently with so little energy input? tmf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
