Final Fill? Keeping my fingers crossed!



Recommended Posts

Today I saw my doctor, and we added .5 cc's more to my band. I have a 14 cc band, and it's now holding 12 cc's. I lost 6 lbs over the past four weeks, but still do not have restriction.

Please let this be the one!

We have a 2 year plan in motion, and if this does not work, we will go another route, like the sleeve.

So many of the people I met during my band surgery back in 2009 have had sleeve revisions. I'm praying this time around works!

Good Luck and Strong Will Power everyone!

Not necessarily needed restriction as Satiation when eating. You appear to be looking for something to stop you from eating. You won't find it if you are eating sliders. Don't make your band so tight that you can't eat anything except sliders. Best wishes, looks like you are doing fine if you lost 6 lbs in one month. Please update your stats if you have not. Thanks.

      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.
