I think i need another fill??



Recommended Posts

I havent had a fill since 1-19-07. i am at 5cc in a VG band. I can eat a whole whopper hamberger in about 25min - very small bites with no problem. i still PB if i eat too fast or take too big of bites of anything. I do need a fill right? Last time i got a fill i could only eat half of a small cheese burger $1.00 menu at Mcdonalds.... yes i know i eat crappy food... i am working on it... do you think its time for a fill? i have stayed at 250 lbs since the beginning of febuary.

thanks,

That is a hard call. I haven't got my first fill yet but my doc said NO PB'n. He said that if you are doing that a lot you are too tight. I would call your doctor and ask him about it.

Well, I would think you need a fill....but mostly stay away from the whoppers! Most people can't eat bread, but not sure if that is a good thing or bad thing. I think you need to make better food choices first, then see how you feel, if you find you can eat more than 1 cup of food, time for a fill.

Good-luck.

      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.
