1 week till first fill, can't get here get enough!



Recommended Posts

I have one more week until my first fill and I can not wait. Not only will I be four weeks post op then, which means I can dive deeper into my workout routine and lift weights, but I want to leave this bandster hell behind me! I've done well with maintaining my weight over the past two weeks, but I feel like I can physically eat whatever foods I want, in any portion size. I won't lie, I've eaten a couple things I shouldn't have (I have a terrible sweet tooth), but I've really been trying hard to not gain any weight before my first fill. I'm very thankful for MyFitnessPal because it totally keeps me in check when I have to track my food!

I hope the fill makes a great difference for you!

Sarah RN482 - I'm so glad you posted this because I feel the same ... I was banded on 30 sept and I felt tender and little appetite then. Last week my hunger started and this week I could eat anything. I've been eating smooth porridge, crisps or if ur American chips, chocolate, crackers, pâté, broccoli, potatoe, cottage cheese, cake, mashed potatoe, these are the types of food but I could eat 4/or 5 times a day... My first fill is 31st oct and I cannot wait. I'm planning my food next week and have decided to get on Protein Shakes loads of people are losing weight with Protein shakes. Good luck to us ... I feel same as u though ..

      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.
