Ok im so happy to have gotten the surgery!! I have lost 27 pds so far but im ready for a fill , my fill date is may 9th. I feel like im eating too much or im always hungry , im not eating any sweets and trying not to eat many carbs because iam diabetic but since the surgery i have been taken off my metformin, byetta and glipazide im so happy cause my levels have been running between 80 and 100. So i must be doing something right , so is anyone feeling hungry all the time b4 their first fill? Anyways im looking to lose about 170 pds so i have a ways to go , but i know if i really want it i can do it!! Same to everyone else needing to lose weight! I keep telling myself [[ food ]] is not my friend!! So good luck to everyone!!:lol:

HI Sherri

Yes I am right there with you. Banded march 25 and my fill will be april 30. I am hungary all the time but must admit I am able to recognize most of this hungar is head hungar. My dilemma is I can eat and eat without consequence until LATER when I have a stomach ache for hours. Julie

      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.
