Hey ABC group,

We are doing awsome, I just went for my second fill today 10-12-06 I have a 10cc Inamed band I had my 1st fill on 09-28-06 they put in 4cc after a couple of days I knew I had no restriction. When I went today she told me that I had lost 3 cc's in my band and that was normal the 1st time because they are filling all that tubing up so she put back the 3cc and then .6cc so now I have 4.6cc and so far I can feel restricted even being on liquids for the next 2 days and soft for 1 day, hopefully that will jump start me again I lost 3 more lbs so have lost a total of 26lbs.:biggrin1:

Thanks for all the support. It is really nice to have others that are going through this new life style. My husband was also banded in August

he is down 20lbs.

Hi all,

My weight loss is slow...but it is happening and that is key. I have lost 12 lbs since my banding on August 3rd. Just had my third fill and I hope this really speeds up the weight loss!

      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.
