Hi! I ws banded on Oct, so just one day after you. I'm feeling really good so far...I've had one fill (1.2cc in a 4cc band). I've lost about 18 pounds, 4 pounds since the fill on Dec 4. I have an appt on Wednesday to get my second fill.

There is a thread for October bandsters in the general lap band section. You should come join in!

Hey October Bandsters. I Had My Surgery October 30 Weighing 212.8. First Fill Of 3 Cc Today, 12/19 By Doctor Edward Pucci Of Denville , New Jersey. Great Surgeon. Feeling No Restriction At All. I Have Lost Only 16.6 Lbs. Yes Everyone Trying To Lose Weight Knows Those .6 Lbs Really Makes You Feel Better. Hoping To Continue On My Weightloss Journey After Todays Fill. I"ve Heard That Some Dont Recognize The Restrictions For A Few Days Or Weeks After The Fill. Is This Correct?

      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.
