Where does the restriction go?



Recommended Posts

Ok, so I had my second fill about 2 weeks ago. I immediately felt good restriction and that was sustained for the past two weeks. As of yesterday and today, my restriction is gone. I'm wondering if I should wait, or book another fill? What do people think? I've only lost 5 lbs since my last fill, so I don't understand why I wouldn't feel restriction anymore. Any ideas?

In two weeks, you can adjust to a fill and decide if you need another one. Since it's only your second fill, I'd book another one so you can build up to some restirction. I'm in the same situation...I had a complete unfill and have had two fills...the last one a week ago...and I'm going to schedule this week to get my third fill next week because I don't have much restriction at 2.3 ccs.

You know by the amount you can eat and how much restriction you feel if you need one.

Hi:

I've had my second fill and got some restriction. The reason I ask what is restriction suppose to feel like is; I have certain foods that I cannot eat(Pasta, some breads) without experiencing PB, sliming & throwing up. I can eat other foods and have no problems and feel like I'm eating more than I should. My 2nd fill was on 1-24-08, should I get another fill or wait?:eek: I plan on weighing myself on Weds. so I don't know how much (if any) weight I've lost since the last fill.

Thank you in advance for always getting an answer to my questions.....

What is slimming?

GIRLFRIEND, when you start slimming, ya'll know exactly what you are doing! It's like a big ball of slimm that comes out with or with out food. Don't worry you'll experience it soon enough!:lol:

      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.
