GREEN ZONE BABY!!! Wooooo Hoooooo!



Recommended Posts

Fill #3 has put me in the green zone! I have 5cc's in my 10cc band and it did the trick! I'm staying full for a minimum of 4 hours, able to tolerate solids very well and the pounds are melting faster than ever now. I've lost 4lbs in just 3 days (without exercise) and I am so thrilled!!!! I hope you all experience the same results, it is an unbelievable feeling!!!

Congrats!!! I think I'm at my green zone also. I had my 4th fill last Tuesday 6.4cc now. I've lost 8lbs I have been having a problem getting all my Protein in b/c I forget to eat but I'm setting a reminder on my phone so I make sure I eat. And getting all my Water is another story. But I'm very please that my tool and I are finally working together.

I think I may be too tight. I can't tolerate solids very well & eat very little! I'm exercising & still not losing much. When you say you are tolerating solids well and staying full for long periods....can u give me an idea how much you are able to eat at one time?

Congrats to you! I cantwait to be able to post something like this.

Yaaaaaaaaaay for you! I hope to get to the green zone soon. I have restriction but not to the extent that you all speak of. I can and have eaten a full meal in less than 15 minutes. I know I shouldn't but when you work in a very busy doctors office, most times I don't have a choice. I'm gonna call my surgeon next week and ask for another fill. Hopefully this one will do the trick. I've been longing for the green zone!

      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.
