I had my surgery May 7 and I've lost 22 lbs. I've had 1 .5cc fill, but due to vomiting and severe pain I had to be unfilled. I have no restriction now, I'm so thankful I have fill appt next week.

I was starting to worry that I was never going to lose another pound! I lost only 1 lb. in 4 weeks of mushies and since then I've stayed the same. But today I got on my home scale and it says I was down 10 pounds! How is that possible?!?!? :thumbup: Just to make sure I got on the scale at teh gym and that said down 9 pounds so I guess it's right. :thumbs_down:

Whatever -- I'll take it! Of course I still go by my doctors scale as the offical measurement and I go in for a check and 2nd fill on July 30th.

Okay so tell me everyone.... I am seeing some fantastic weight loss on here and I'm wondering if you are including your preop weight loss?? I am 6 weeks post op today with one fill and have only lost 16lbs.... seeing all your great numbers leaves me alittle discouraged. :thumbup:

But congrats to everyone on these great numbers I'm seeing!!!!

Paige everyone losses at a different pace don't get discouraged 16 lbs is amazing! Would you have done that without your band? BTW my weight loss is including my pre-op liquid diet.< /p>

Had my 2nd fill yesterday and was told I probably need 1 or 2 more to hit the sweet spot. I now have 6 1/2 cc's in a 12cc band.

      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.
