Going For My 3Rd Fill Today



Recommended Posts

I have my 3rd fill today. Although my 2nd made a 7 lb impact, I am seriously looking forward to today's. I've been reading posts where the 3rd fill is where most people began losing weight significantly. I'm hoping for at least a 10 lb loss the next 4 weeks :)

I got mine done at 1pm today. He gave me 2 cc's which put me to 8 cc's but it was too much where I couldnt hi old down Water so he took out .75 cc's and I have a very good amt of restriction. so I have 7.25 cc's in total now. This is def going to force me to chew chew chew. I'm excited about the weight loss from this point on. Best of luck to the both of us :)

Went for my 3rd fill yesterday. Definitely feel more restriction but my fills are very conservative only about 1cc at a time. This is the first one that made me feel restricted from the second it was done....I will eat puree today and start on regular food tomorrow.

At 6cc in 10cc band... Wondering what this might feel like after I'm off full liquids after tomorrow. I'm kind of scared. I'm doing fine so far on full liquids. Want to be in green zone and I've got 24 pounds to goal.

Ok, so I was on liquids for the remainder of yesterday after my fill. Today I ate a small Breakfast and its hrs later and it still won't go down. I drink Water, tea and it comes back up. I think I may have gotten too much filling although he did take out some. Im going to try liquids for the next 3 days and see if that helps. Anyone gone through this or is going through this???

I called the Dr today and he said clear fluids the rest of the day and he will see me tmrw morning at 10am. I hope he only takes .25 or .5cc's at most. It's hard for me to keep liquids down. It takes too long,and some still comes back up after a while after my saliva accumulates. Not normal at all. The tightening starts loosening up when you're losing weight right? That's what I've been told by some ppl on here.

I'm having alot of trouble too. Drank a small coffee this morning, had a bottle of Water around noon. I tried to eat Wendys Chili and could not eat but 2 spoons & lost it. I gave up & am heading to bed. I'm going to try liquids tomorrow

Yeah...liqyids, including my saliva aren't going down quick enough so some still comes up. I wanna lose weight not become anorexic, malnutritioned or dehydrated. Going back to the Dr tomorrow morning and have him take out at least .25 cc's. Not fun at all. But, I know this happens. The worst part is I feel exhausted from throwing up and having nothing in my system to give me energy for the day. Trial and error to gain success. Keep me posted. I'll update you tomorrow morning after I get out of the Dr's office :)

Just got out of the Dr's. He took out .5cc's and I felt instant relief. However, I do feel weak since I've been on an empty stomach for 2 days. I'm drinking a glass of cold milk and it feels sooooooo good. So my 3rd filling went from being 2 to 1.25 to .75 cc's. 4 more weeks for my next fill. Looking fwd to the weight loss with this one. :)

      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.
