First Fill

Today was my first fill. Yippie cause I was starting to have real hunger issues last few days.

 

I had 3 cc by the time I left the doctors office.First she filled me to 4 then when nothing passed backed out of it until she settled for a 3. Hope this goes well. Watching the process of liquid pass slowly really gives you perspective on your lap band as a tool. I have to chew like never before after watching how liquid has a hard time passng.

 

 

 

They also have put me on a strict diet in my opinion.

 

Not so much counting calories but actually telling me what to eat and when.

 

 

 

Breakfast: either two eggs cooked with a little olive oil or pam or my Atkins bar :)

 

 

 

Lunch: Salad w/protein. She said no dressing except a little olive oil. I talked her into a little spritx of like rasberry vinegar or cider vinegar also.

 

 

 

Dinner: Protein and a vegetable.

 

 

 

Snacks: 1/4 c. almonds or piece of fruit.

 

 

 

Seems pretty hardcore :) Im already doing that but I guess being told what to do. I am rebellious and I shouldnt be.

 

 

 

Some interesting things was watchig my pouch expand when the fluid wouldt pass.

 

That was pretty awesome. Just like filliig a balloon with air.

 

 

 

What I hate is the liquid diet but it is necessary and useful.

 

 

 

Boy am I glad I had a mini omelette for breakfast :P

i get my first fill on friday and i cant wait. did you gain any weight while waiting for your fill. i'll be 4 weeks status post surgery and i have gained 1-2 pounds. i guess i'm not too upset seeing as how i've been on regular food almost a whole week and mushies and soft for 3.:rolleyes:

@ Jennifer, I didnt gain any weight but lost a little. I didnt try ad lose any during liquids or mushies. Not many diets options beside jello and I just didnt care for it. I like to chew so I got bored with the food options. You will get in the grove once you can get on a regular meals.

Thank You Tanya for the encouragement..
