HI Jacole, how are you? It's me. You're at 9cc??? Wow. I'm at 8.25. I still feel like I need a little more restriction since I can still eat bread, etc. How's the eating like? You should call the office if you aren't feeling well..

If you can still drink liquids, i would wait a couple of more days. But i'm no doctor. I just know that the band can change quite a bit and it is important that you get fluids down.

Have you tried anything but liquids? How are the liquids going down? Are you coughing on your saliva or anything? I just had 0.5cc of saline taken out of my band today. I got a fill on 8/14 and it was perfect but for the last week I have been getting tighter and tighter. Today I couldn't even eat a whole container of yogurt then I PB'd turkey and cheese at lunch and I felt like I was coughing on my saliva. When I went in they said I definately was getting too tight.

Let me know.

      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.
