Thanks Christina You are so sweet :)

These last few lbs are the hardest..however I was unfilled from April 20 until June 20. That doesnt help thesituation Then had 1'cc put back in June 20th , Iam going to see Dr. Ortiz today for some more fill...He told me if I needed more then to come back in 2 weeks , well it has been 3 weeks today. I need a little more. When I was unfilled due to my bowel obstruction surgery I had 2.5 cc's ...so 1 cc is like nothing to me. Im greatful I have not gained in this time, that justtell me I have learned something over the last 15 months. Having no fill for 2 months and only 1cc for 3 weeks and no gain is a victory in itself. Iam hoping by Labor Day I will be at goal..that is my desire andwhat Iam striving for. Thanks again for thinking of me and cheering me on!

Just got back from my 2nd fill of being unfilled for 2 months, I now have 1.5 cc's. Let's see if I can get to goal with this ammount. I feel a difference all ready with just drinking liquids. He tried to put me to 2.5 like I was before I was unfilled and there was no way, complete shut off..and then he backed down to 2.0 and still the barium was barely going through. I asked why after an unfill you can not go back to what you were before the unfill, he told me many paiteints can not and there is real no explanation for it, so Iam now at 1.5...I will just have to see how this works for the time being and let my head do more work then the band.

      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.
