Till my first fill. Then 2 days of liquids. I cant wait. I still have not been hungry, but dont want to tell my dr about that in case she doesnt want to do the fill. I have been able to limit myself to 700-900 calories of food with no problems. Hope everyone else is doing good too....Dave

And now its over. WOW, that was nice and easy. I got 6cc's put in my 10cc band. chicken broth for the next day then mushies.

I have to admit I thought it was going to be more involved than it was, but my dr hit the port the first try. Then the "drink the Water test" and she went up to 6cc's

Hope everybody else is making out real good too.....Dave

WOW,

6 cc in a 10 cc band on your first fill, I could be wrong , but, it sounds like you got a way larger band than you needed. I have 3.6 cc (total) after my 3rd fill. Here is wishing you all the best on your new journey to being a much healthier and slimmer person.

Thanks for the good wished. We are being a little agressive due to the type of work I do and my being out of the country every other month. We'll see in a week or so how it feels, but right now the chicken broth is going down ok, just taking it real slow

      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.
