Does anyone have huge fluid in their band



Recommended Posts

I'm at 10cc in a 14 and still feel I need more. Does anyone else have this amount? I am thinking I need more because I do not stay satisfied long

Yes. I actually had more put in right before the holidays cause it seemed loose again but it was just too much so i had it unfilled and am back to 10.7.... Everyone is so different though. All i can say is when you get to that sweet spot you will definately know. Be aggresive and gets fills every month until you do. Ive lost the majority of my weight only within the last year .

I've got 10cc in a 14cc band and I can tell I will need more as I have lost a little more weight and it has loosened somewhat. Going in for another fill on Feb 19th.

Yes I would say I am in the green zone. I also have an appointment with an oncologist tomorrow to see if there's a reason why I'm not losing more weight. I eat less than 1200 calories a day and exercise an hour 7 days a week and I am in a major stall.

I'm on a major stall too so would live to know what your oncologist suggests x

      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.
