CRAZY RESTRICTION AT 6.4 CC



Recommended Posts

So I have 6.4 CC in my band right now and I was doing ok I didn't feel any restrictions then I got sick and all of a sudden I could hardly keep hot Water down! So I went on a liquid diet for 4 weeks and dropped 25 lbs but now I'm worried if I should get unfills BC for some reason I can only drink hot liquids nothing cold and I can't really eat anything! If I'm lucky I can eat a few crackers but if I try eating anything else I will throw it all up! Help has anyone been through this before?

You definitley need to get in and be seen by your dr. If you can't eat food, something is wrong! The lapband isn't about restricting your food, you need to eat girl!

Yeah, you are definitely in the Red Zone. I'm there with you at 6cc after my 1cc fill on Monday, and the only reason I have waited this long to get it taken care of is my work schedule. It may be exciting to lose weight fast, but you need to be able to eat solid food.< /p>

I can't believe you've gone a whole month on just liquids. I think it's incredibly important you see a dr right now. Throwing everything up could be a slip.

You think that being on liquids for four weeks to lose 25lbs was right? Girl call your doctor and get an unfill that is so unhealthy.

i believe u should consult with ur doc and that happen to me and i lost 19 pounds and i just could take it anymore first time he took out to much when he filled me out again i was conerned with fact i didnt want to be to loose so he only took out 1 cc so u have to tell the dr ur concerns and that way he can do whats best for u when he took out 1 cc he also told me to come back in 2 weeks instead of a mth so i can continue my weight loss so u might want to request that and be a lil forceful ur just prob swollen hot tea with honey could help or room temp pineapple juice even pato Soup will go down smoothly good luck

      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.
