Hi Slinky

im really lucky hun can eat most things as long as its slowly, but must say my weight loss has stopped now and booked for my first fill in manchester on the tenth, cant wait to get it moving again, wont be long now till ur on ur way, i do struggle with bread a little but still managing my roast on a sunday so very happy but like i say stuck at 17 lost and none the last week, i have a question to the long term bandsters when u say dr chris will do a double fill on ur first visit do u pay just the 90 or do u have to pay 180 just curious and maybe a bit thick lol

Hi Carrie, glad you and the bump are doing well, when is baby going to be born? (Was gonna say she then )

You know what.... its very odd, I havent lost anymore weight and yet my clothes are definitely looser.

I know you can lose inches and not pounds, so as long as this carries on I dont care about the weight. lol, well I do a bit.

Julie I've never heard of a double-fill, maybe its where he puts so much in, then you drink Water and if it goes down ok he puts more in, and I couldnt for the life of me see why you'd have to pay twice hunny, so i wouldnt worry about that.

Hi Sussie

I had my first fill today with Fred. He put in 3cc. I couldn't look at the needle when he was finding the port, but it wasn't too bad. It did feel weird going in though 'cause I could feel the band getting tighter. Have to go back onto liquids for 2 days and have lost 9kg since the op. :biggrin:

Many thanks.

Hi Freckles

Thanks for that i dunno where i got it from either lol must have dreamt it whats the usual first amount they put in everyone seems to have such varying amounts i just want it done now i seem to have stopped losing with a suddend jolt it s drivin me mad now its only been a slow loss but i was happy with it but now nothing hopefully the fill will get me kick started again and for the life of me i just cannot get a ticker to load onto my page.

You could but i think that you would be better off trying to have Soups you make yourself, i know that you get all your minerals etc from cambridge but you have to be able to drink them in a certain amount of time before they go funny and i dont think that you would be able to do that straight after your band. If you are having to tip them away then you will not get anywhere near the amount of calories you need. Also if you are having this surgery then i would use it as a reason to never have to think about having to drink any diet related shake for the rest of your life!

      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.
