Yay!!!! I'm happy for you. I noticed a big difference on my second one. I get my third, if I'm lucky, next week. What size band do you have Ready? Can you tell a difference yet?

I think I have a 14cc band. If I remember correctly. My first fill was 2cc and this was is 4cc so I now have 6cc in there.She was worried it was too big of a fill and I said "Girl, for $150 I want you to pump it in by the gallon". I could swallow the Water just fine, but I haven't eaten yet....I guess we will see.

Man I am looking at my post and I just love these (...) I need to learn to stop doing it. In my mind it represents thinking, or a pause. I edited to take out two of these (...)

That would be so cool. Hopefully I will follow in your ever thinner footsteps.

I thought I was the only one who did that. I am so bad with it when I'm chatting or messaging. And you're right...it's like a pause. LOL

Give us an update on your restriction progress since you are probably on solids now.

I'm doing good with it. It's not nearly as tight as I thought it would be. I'm eating ALOT less, but solids are going down just fine. I haven't got stuck or anything...but then again I am being really careful. I haven't got on a scale since the fill, but I know I have lost weight. I would say I am pretty happy with it.

Apparently, I need aggressive fills to make a difference. Thanks for asking.

Love em too. To me they are a longer than comma pause. Kinda like joke punchline pause. And I really love em at the end of a partial thought. Can't think of an example now just know it looks like this.

So.......

Anyway.......

      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.
