I just had lap band surgery yesterday. My father had it done a little more than month ago, he has lost 22 pounds, he gained 4 pounds at the end of week 3 but it came right back off. He had his first fill yesterday and his doctor said the slight gain was totally normal.

I felt the exact same way. I was banded Aug 6th also and I just had a fill last week. I was at a stand still on my weight loss until I had the fill. I am very fearful that I am not gonna succeed with the band. My hardest times are when I at birthday parties, or out to dinner.....I get moody and depressed because I can't eat like I used to but yet I'm happy at other times.

You will not see the real weight lost tell months 3 and 4 because you have to find your fill number and they start you off slowly to find that number

      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.
