fell great the fill deffenetly helps iv got my second fill on the 18th may cant wait iv lost 3 and a half stone in 6 weeks so somethings defenetly working hows your portion size going before my fill i was eating normal size and now i can hardly eat anything its great

OMG 3 1/2 stone that is massive. How much did you get put in the band - are you still really restricted

I am still able to eat normal portions but trying to keep healthy but have the odd lapse lol

Not lost/gained any weight in last 5 weeks so stuck at 16lbs lost so far - feeling a bit fed up now but am sure once I get the fills started the weight will start to drop off - hopefully!!!

Are you going to Dr Chris in Edinburgh for your next fill??

Glad your doing well and you must be delighted with your weight loss so far

hi scooby how is your weighloss going,all you latest bandsters will have to get tickers up lol:tongue_smilie:

Hi Wannabe

Its official I have reached "bandster hell" my weight loss has stopped completely - I lost 16lbs in first 2 weeks and not lost or gained anything since, now almost 9 weeks post op.

Was meant to get first fill in April but it was cancelled due to the bloody volcano so now go next week for it - fingers crossed. that should then get me on the road to weight loss hopefully otherwise I have wasted thousands of pounds aarrgghh.......

How are you feeling about getting yours done, you will be fine and honestly it is nothing to worry about - easy for me to say i know but the level of care is fantastic and you are really looked after.

Well done Garry! my weight loss has stopped even after first 3 mil fill. Next one on 27/05 can't wait as really wanna see a difference. Need to plan my food a bit better too, and I'm thinking Protein Shakes might be the way to go again for a while.

Keep up the good work xx

I heard WLS offer good packages but that would then void any guarantee if anything goes wrong which worries me.

What Protein Shakes are you on - they are obviously working well for you

I have got something stuck just once and omg i thought I was dying - never want to experience that ever again

Take Care

I completely agree with your last statement, i have no doubt WLS are very good and i have only heard good things but for those that dont know me i have a pierced tube problem under ecfs care and got it repaired immediately and i paid for nothing, they were fantastic.

JUst to keep in mind for those new guys.

an excellent protien shake i use comes from my protien.com i will post the link to the one i use, its very low in calories but offers very good protien. Unfortunately if you read labels you will see that slimfast has very little protien compared but has a hell of a lot of carbs/sugar which gives it the nice sweet taste, take away the sugar and the calories are very low in slimfast therefore no real nutritional value, just a fad gimmick, god i could go on for hours on this topic. PM me if you want any info, i am reasonably knowledgable on this subject.

Hi guys just reading the last few post concerning protien drinks and was wondering when i get to proper food (still on liquids yet) is this something i should be drinking regular or is it just a choice you've made. I find most of them kinda sweet and a bit sickly.

Can anyone tell me if they felt cold all the time after being banded? I am normally the one, that as soon as the sun comes out, out comes the vest and flipflops. I just can't seem to get the heat into me.

      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.
