I dont flippin get it



Recommended Posts

I am 6 weeks postop and Ive had one fill.I have NO restriction what so ever and am getting another fill tomorrow. Ive been so good excercising and eating only 1200 calories. Well today i got chinese chicken and broccoli and measured out about a cup. Well then i had another cup and nothing! Didnt feel full or anything! I could have eaten more. I dont get it. I was waiting for that full feeling but nothing. Is this normal and besides eating all those calories could I have done harm?

On this web site they call it bandster hell! You are doing great in 6 weeks you have lost alot of weight.

I am 6 months out and only lost 33. My doctor told me 50 pounds is the normal for the 1st year.

Relax........you will get there.

I agree, in our lap-band®® support group we have Bandsters that are frustrated with the slowness they are losing the weight, but some are just two months out or less. It will take time and they will lose the weight.

Hang in there, you just need another fill or maybe more. I was lucky to get restriction early, but you will get there too - then you won't be able to eat so much and the weight will come off.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
