Recommended Posts

Hi all, I have just come accross the site by chance...... wow what a find! Its so nice to read that others are experiencing the same as me at this time. The op was fab, appetite declined immediately but last 2 weeks or so I have been soooooooooooooooooo hungry and have regained some of the weight I had lost pre-op, starting to fear failure etc. etc. seem to have lost a lot of my positivity I just hope it all changes again tomorrow after inflation?

I get my first fill on the 17th. I am at a standstill as well and my appetite keeps increasing as the days go by. I was told by my physician that I may regain some of the weight I have lost until my first fill. Hang in there. I am anticipating a big change after the fill.

Thanks......I know its silly but you automatically think its only you that this happens to and its all going to go wrong......It's so frustrating I know it is no quick fix or miracle cure but its the constant battle with my appetite that I just want to stop. I hope I do notice a difference fairly quickly following the first inflation tomorrow, wait and see I guess. Good luck with yours I am sure we will post again next month sying how everything has improved.

Hello there...

I am getting my first fill on the 27th of August and I am soooo excited. Lately I have been able to increase my food volume and I am concerned about gaining weight. I have started exercising to try to balance it out. It's nice to hear others worried about wieght gain during this time. I weigh 205 (only here do you freely publish that info, I love it!) I have been staring at those pesky 6 lbs because I desperetly would love to fall below the 200's. I love this website, it's great. I really like how the experienced bandsters share their victories, it's very inspiring. Good luck you guys with your fills, I am envious you are ready for them!!!!!

your right...............it was so nice going for surgery for once not worrying about my size and how I look! I guess they will get me on the scales again tomorrow? I am looking forward to the fill I really want to get this working. Very best wishes to you too, like you say it is so nice to communicate with others who totally understand. Justine

      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.
