WOW! I guess you really like a tight band. Mine is 5cc and I can't go higher because I get sick just like you described. Head hunger is a witch! Best wahes to you, hopefully the slight unfill will do the trick.Karen

not quite sure what you are saying due to all the abbreviations and grammer but I hope you are better. I think you said you had too much fill and you were unable to drink or eat.. I am happy that my Dr is not aggressive with fills.. so far I have had 1.8 cc .. since surgery on Jan 15th.

Yhank you not much of aggresive but when you loose the weight especially around your stomach it needs adjusted ive had a great progress but I guess the little 4 pounds I lost instead if the normal 10 thru 15 wasnt good enough for an adjustment thsts ehy he gave me .25

My understanding is my 10cc band holds 10cc not 14.. Sounds like you have a 14cc band?

Nope I have a standard 1 0 but was told it cud go up

      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.
