1 month post op fill



Recommended Posts

Hello! I went for my 1 month post op appt this past Friday! They accidentally scheduled me for 2 weeks after my surgery, so I was also in 2 weeks ago and in 2 weeks lost 8lbs! Total loss ( no pre op diet) of 28 lbs! I got a fill and was a little nervous. It wasn't as bad as i thought! Found out at the time of surgery mr Dr put in 4cc in my band! They gave me 1 more, so I have 5cc in a 10 band! Felt good afterwards. liquid all day friday and sat and today I can start mushies! So far so good! Hope you all are doing well!

Hello Joanne,

I actually haven't noticed any difference yet?! I am wondering if it might take a few days like others have mentioned?! I will be looking for those changes. How are things going with you?

You shouldn't notice anything until you eat slid Proteins. And you should only notice that when eating the suggested amount of food, dense Protein, veggies and good carbs with no Water for 30 minutes, you should feel satisfied, not full. It is never about being full, it is about being satisfied. That is also why it is important to eat foods you enjoy so you don't crave something else. The mind likes to play lots of head games.

Don't measure your fill on Liquid Protein or mushies.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
