Call your doctor. That's not normal unless you're eating Soup?

Definitely call your doctor! I don't think the band has ever stopped me from eating at normal speed, I control that. You should still follow the lap-band rules even though you feel like the band isn't stopping you! Sometimes when you throw all the rules out the window, even what could be good restriction, you can eat around the band!

Agreed call your doctor. I had one instance of this. The day of my fill but within a day that disappeared.

Hi everyone I've been back down she drained it and said I had lost 0.25 ml of Fluid which didn't really concern her . She has topped me back up to the amount it Should have been at , I go back in three weeks when she will measure it again if I ave lost any more I will need a barium swallow .

      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.
