Question about fill



Recommended Posts

Hello first of all I have to say I cannot wait for a fill. I can't believe how my appetite has returned. I am shocked that for three weeks I was stuffed after eating so little now its like I have no band. I am trying to be good and make the right choices but I feel hungry very soon. I have my first fill July 13th. Two questions :

What does it feel like ?

Also How does the Dr Know if you need to be filled under that xray thing ? I dont want to mistrust him but I wish he would do me that way because I read a post about the cord getting a hole in it during a fill with one woman.

If I get filled with that xray thing does it have to happen at the hospital instead of the office ? Thanks so much I appreaciate you sharing info with me

I think it depends on the surgeon. Mine does a great fill just on its own. I haven't had any problems at all. The only thing that hurts with a fill is if they use a anastetic to numb the area where the needle goes in. It stings a bit. Other than that it is painless. Good luck.

I had my fill and WHOA, I knew I had restriction there. It's been three weeks and I'm starting to feel HUNGRY and have taste buds again.

I've decided to go back on a detox diet and flush out the garbage of chemicals I know I ate. Ten days of this and then I'll start slowly again. I'm hoping this helps.

i dont really understand the point of a detox diet. There is no scientific evidence they do anything. Its marketing, those diets that claim to 'flush' out toxins or clean your system etc... it's crap! If anything, just eat your recommended Fiber, eat veggies...thats "detox". It's like colonics, they dont do anything, its all in the way they are marketed as health solutions.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
