I had gained a few pounds but now am back down to 195.2. I had a fill on 5/20 so hopefully that is already helping.

280.5 today. That's 6.5 down this week and 33 down total.

Of course, I had to go in yesterday and get UNfilled because my band was too tight. The PA said my surgeon will fill the band completely and then take out enough to make the pressure equal and ensure there are no air bubbles. For some it's as little as 0.5ccs. For me, the PA took out 3.2ccs and I still have 0.5ccs left. That was almost 4ccs in there before. Now I'll probably have no restriction like most people a month out and I'll be ravenous and stop losing so quickly. Oh well, to me it's better than having chest pain everytime I swallow.

270lbs for me today. It's not as much as I wanted to see, but it's still on track.

i had my first appointment with my dr today. i am down 16 lbs since i was banded 4/7. The dr feels i'm doing great and did not do a fill today. i go see him again in July and he will decide then if i need the first fill then. i'm so very excited - i haven't weighed on fridays yet but now i can set my scale to match the dr's office and will begin the weekly weigh ins. Hope you all have a safe and happy Memorial Day!! :thumbup:

      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.
