1 fill and now at standstill. Is this common?



Recommended Posts

After my first fill, I had about a 3 day standstill. I think 5 cc's of Water wights about 4 pounds. :thumbup:

Really, even after a fill, there is some slight swelling. So a couple of days standstill is not uncommon. The loss will start back.

Guys I think the most common mistake we all make is to think if we cut back on more calories we will lose more weight.So not true if you cut out to many calories your body will think you are starving and to protect you from famine will store all the fat,so make sure you get between 850-1200

calories drink plenty of fluids and get your Protein.< /p>

4 month post op here. If my calories drop below about 900-1100 I don't lose a thing. I exercise too so it's like my body rebels if I don't feed it.

This is not at all related to this thread. I just happened to look under your ticker counting down the time to your "Kauai" wedding. I just want to go back to Hawaii and I'm jealous.:thumbup: Congratulations!!! Sorry for getting off subject.

      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.
