They always have me drink. Saw a great humming bird in the image. She only put .3 in me and after I drank the Fluid it came right back up. She had to take out .1 and everything went through just fine. Anymore and ill be too tight lol.

Yeah it would be miserable to have it too tight but ill find out why it's doing thy the first week of your full! I'm glad I downloaded this app cause I'm having surgery the 16 of August so I'm learning even more from here and working at the doctors office !!

Thank you! Yes I am pretty nervous! I just don't know what to expect I've never had any type of abdominal surgery the only type I've had is back surgery and my wisdom teeth removed lol.

How long did you have to wait for your first fill??

My first fill was 4wks out (1 week ago) Then every 2 wks after the first.

I feel completely different after just one 4cc fill. I can go 3-4 hours between meals. Not craving Snacks. Loving it!!

Just had my first fill 3cc in a 14cc band. I'm 4 weeks post-op also. My band feels tight while drinking broth but I'm able to keep it down.

      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.
