I was banded March 22,2013. Today was my first follow-up with the Doctor and my first fill. I found out I have a 10cc band. Forgot how much fill I got. I have lost post surgery 22 lbs with 2 weeks of staying the same weight . One week was the first week of Real food and second was last week. I was opting not to get a fill--- BUT the last 2 weeks I wasn't feeling full after my 1/2 c servings.

This going on Clear liquids for 2 days Is MENTALLY Challenging.. 2 days of the Full liquid is not going to be much better..

I no I can do this. But weather is raining and School's out for Summer so I 'm not working. Got to keep busy with something.

I have 39 more lbs to go to get to my Goal Weight. They didn't measure me so I don't no how much they have changed.

Can't wait to go down another size.. It's the Greatest feeling putting on clothes that I couldn't even get into 3 months ago..

I have been VERY constipated doc sez that's because I'm not drinking enough Water.

Sure glad I switched offices because Nurse at old office told me Well you won't drink as much as you did before banding.. It was because of her and her attitude and non compassion I switched offices.. Same Surgeon group just different location..

Well this is all for now.. Stay Positive Stay positive.. I keep saying this in my head.

Happy weight loss everyone!!!

      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.
