Not Sure What Is Going On



Recommended Posts

I had a slight unfilled a couple of weeks ago and it fills like he took everything out. I talked to him today and he said all he took out was 0.25 CC out. I know before I was too tight but now I feel to loose. I am one year out next month and I have gained two lbs. This is my first gain since my surgery. I have lost 85 lbs. I am frustrated because he said he won't put any back in tell January. I am sad because I don't want to gain any more and I am hungry for the really the first time since surgery. Has anyone else gone through this? I am going to my nutritionist on Thursday and don't wanna get on scale.< /p>

I understand your frustration. My doctor told me that you often feel too loose after an unfill, said it was more a head game than anything. Talk with your nutritionist about it.

Don't worry you are doing great, 2lbs is nothing probably Water weight.

Good luck to you.

Yes you probably just gained those two pounds from being so tight before the unfill. It will all balance out eventually. This is when your willpower has to really kick in when you have a little extra wiggle room in your band. You can do it!!

      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.
