small fills during weight loss period normal?



Recommended Posts

So I went for my 6th...yes 6th fill today ( i was banded 3/18/08) and the PA made me feel like i am a little crazy....Since being banded i have lost 42 lbs (half way to my goal).....At my 4th fill I started to get .2 cc every 3 weeks or every 6 lbs...(anything more then that is too much and I have had to have some removed... Well I though small adjustments were normal at the losing stage.... the PA thinks i might be becoming a little obsessed....I do believe that everyone has a personal comfort level that they like there band...i think i am more sucessful when my band is on the tighter end of the spectrum....has anyone experience something similar?

Getting nervous that something might be wrong...

Gabby I think you are doing amazing, 42 lbs in 5 months OMG I think the PA is crazy. If you have found a system of fills that works for you what the hell do you care what she thinks. Keep up the great work!

Sounds like you are taking care of business. I got my band on Jan 18,08. I have lost 60 lbs. My first few fills were 1.5 and 1.0, then on my 3rd I got .5 and really had to adjust. I have had a total 6.0cc injected , Funny, I don't feel like I have as much restriction as I once did. But I eat a 1/2 cup salad 3oz meat and 1/2 wheat brd and that will last me for about 6-7 hours. don't get hungry but what I eat has a tendancy to last a lot longer. I try to go 45-60 min. before I drink anything. i have gone from 206 to 145. I have to fight for every lb. I walk 6 miles at a time and do the gym 4x week. I will be happy with 4lb/month now. and then maintain.

You guys keep up the good work. Use that tool!!:smile:

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
