I totally read it wrong.. I think the time frame threw me off. and the Surgeon Date and Surgery date.. I didn't read it correctly..My bad. Hey so are you related to Kimberly ****? She mentioned you.. or at least I think its you.. I work with her here in SF.. Small World!

Hey Girl - FYI "WE" opt to put our first names on here but others may not like to have their real names given let alone their full (last) names too.

Oh, yeah - lol congratulations on orientation! Girl, it's all down hill from there. Funny you mention tatoo or something... I told Jes last night that as soon as I'm up and running after surgery I'm going to get a t-shirt that says "I'm on the band wagon" or something silly like that - so excited - afraid of tatoos.!!

I live right by the Pinole Kasier...I guess they will be gone by the time I get there. So tell me after a fill how do you feel? Are you right back to normal or is there woozyiness or anything?

No woozy after a fill. Might feel some tightness but no usually. Totally easy.............just you can't eat right away.....fluids and you have to just see how it goes........with each fill/unfill ........you have to take a couple of days to learn how to work with it.........like see what foods work............what gets stuck and ...........just see how to work with the fill..............

Only the first fill did I feel pressure but I got 2ccs which is alot.........as much as I had taken out..........

the surgery is the most intense part once your done with that your home free Jess........................

well maybe the morale of the story is to get a tattoo while we still have some chubby on us!! LOL.

I thought about RNY too but glad I didn't do that. At least with the band you can add or take Fluid out as needed. Seriously if I would have had issues last week with RNY I could have been in the hospital. As it was it was a quick fix with the band just taking some fluid out..........

Band is the best you can make it work for you whether fill or unfill is needed..............scares me to think what would have happened last week if I had RNY!!

      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?

      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.
