BubbaLove 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Hey there guys. Had my first fill of 5 cc's. I seem to be at a standstill now on weight loss. Is this common? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevegoad 32 Posted September 8, 2008 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.

Bamagal 1 Posted September 8, 2008 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> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
health4life 0 Posted September 8, 2008 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. 4 month post op here. If my calories drop below about 900-1100 I don't lose a thing.
