Hi China. Why did you wait 5 months before getting a 2nd fill? Were you losing weight? I do not have my first fill yet. Does the doctor determine how much to fill the band by some formula?

i did have another one before but was over filled and did not know what the procedure was for that so i went thru hell for 2.5wks. then after it was taken out i was scared to get another one until now when i really had no choice. i think all dr's are different im's does it according to what and how much you eat but the most one can get with him is 1.5cc

Wal-Mart sell 100 calorie packs of Emerald Cocoa Roasted Almonds. They are really good. If you have a Sam's Club near you, they sell a large container of the almonds.

wwhat is a 5 day pouch diet.....do you use it after a fill that is too tight

The pouch test is really done before a fill to determine if you really need one. Here is the link Surgical Weight Loss 5 Day Pouch Test. It is basically a modified version of the liquid diet from after surgery. It helps to shrink the pouch.

      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.
