OK, this fill is IRRATATING me!!!



Recommended Posts

I just got an adjustment on 4/27/05, I have been hoping it would kick in soon. I had MORE restriction BEFORE this fill than now. I feel like I could eat nonstop! There has been NO problems eating bread, chicken, eggs, ANYTHING. It is irratating me to no end. I feel hungry constantly and yes I eat mostly solid Proteins. GRRRRRR. Sorry, just venting. I hope against hope it will kick in soon!

OK I hear your frustration - But you know the drill. Patience my friend. Give it sometime you will fell it soon. ITs a shame that it does take sometimes a week or more to truely kick in but it is there & its going to work for you. So in the mean time - Set your self up for a little battle of wills for let say 3 days (or two) you've done it before post-op right? Stay away from the frig & keep yourself busy busy busy- YOU CAN DO THIS & IT WILL KICK IN_PROMISE:0)

If another 3 days pass with nothing -well give your doc a visit if possible. BUT be carefull adding more saline right away. You've read the stories on too much restriction. NOT FUN. Best Of Luck. Patience is a virtue- BE VIRTUOUS:0)

      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.
