Hi, I am going for my second fill on the 17th of this month. Will I see a big change in the food I can eat? I can eat just about everything and alot of it.

No two individuals will have the same experiences on their weight loss journeys. Much depends on how aggressive your surgeon is with your fills.

I've asked my surgeon to be conservative with my fills...and he agrees. After 3 fills I have 4cc of fluid; I can definitely feel the difference, but doubt I'm ever going to be in the "zone". I would rather take the responsibility for my weight loss then risk being too tight.

It is the patient's responsibility to comply with the diet your surgeon wants you to follow...that means healthy food choices and Portion Control.

Well I got first fill 3 months ago and lost 7 pounds at 4.5 cc then I got second fill of three ccs and lost 17 pounds then my third fill got 1.5 cc and lost 6 pounds. Now got fourth fill today of 2 cc so hoping to get a good loss this month. Of corse I've been burning around 1200 cals aday riding bicycle and swimming so it's not been all easy and I've been eating between 700 and 850 cals aday just saying

Ok after having 10.5cc in my 14cc band I'm really feeling a lot of restriction. I barely got down 1 cup pinto Beans last nite for supper. Am I close to "green zone". I even noticed that if I take to big a drink of orange mango juice it takes a minute to get through if that's normal

Congratulations on your great weight loss. A steady decrease in weight is the WTG.

      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.
