Went over the top on last fill



Recommended Posts

Went Monday for small fill. I got .03. Wow it put me in red zone fast :(. Sheesh now I know what it feels like to b in the red!!! I lost 7 lbs in 7 days. Had 1/2 of it removed. Back to normal now!!! Don't ever wanna let that happen again. First 4 days was ok but of course was on liquids then softs but wow the 5 th day was not fun reg foods was not going. So I'm green now and good to go. Got 20 more to loose before I HIT MY GOAL :)

First of all, congratulations on your continued success!

How many ccs do you now have? I know the number is different for everyone, but tomorrow I have an appointment and want to tweak mine too...I'm afraid of getting in the red zone and don't want to have Fluid removed...

I also went over the top on fills. I went up to 9cc's, way to much!!!!!!!!!! I was throwing up whatever I ate, not good! I let it go for a month. Not a good idea. I went back and am down to 8cc's, I feel good! I feel like its where I am supposed to be. It will be my lap band birthday for a year since my surgery on May 22, 2012~~~~ :D I am so glad I did this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am still following all the rules!!!!!!!!!! I did it!!!!!!!!!!!! I love being able to buy clothes now and just bought a bathing suit! I have lost 43 lbs as of today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats to all of you too!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep it up! I think I may have to change my weight loss ticker!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did it hurt to eat when you were in the red zone? I got a fill last Saturday and think I'm in the red, but I can eat and drink and keep food down, but my chest hurts when eating. Doc already got back to me and he said to take out .1 or .2 cc, but I love that my satiety is much better now than before. I'm not sure what they put in, I just ask that they always do small fills, but who knows what that is.

You all lasted longer than me when I was in teh "red" zone after having 1/2 cc put in. I can't go over 5.25 cc without feeling uncomfortable. Best wishes to all!karen

      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.
