My Frist Fill

down 30 lbs since surgery The dr asked me what i could eat I told him i could eat what ever i wanted but was eating about a 1/2 a cup 5 or 6 times a day and was hungry. He said he wanted to start off with a small fill 1 cc in my 10 cc band He gave me some water after he was done and told me to drink it fast, I thought this was funny since in the hospital he was telling me to drink slow since i puked right up on him as soon as i got to protine shake, I laughed and said to him your telling me to drink fast last time you know what happened he laughed and said good point i be on the other side of the room, I drank it nothing happend,

 

I had my nurtion vist who taught us how to live the rest of our lives. She said saying your never going to eat bad food again is silly you just need to be prepared for the times it dose happen. She said no more protine shakes I said I relly liked them in the morning they fast easy tast good and filling and i add stuff to mine, She said okay.

 

I have to go back to lquids for 3 days then mushies for 3 days then it onto the rest of my life, Next fill wil be september

 

 

I had some problem when i drink too much protine shake i vomit up alot i thinking this may just take some time i can drink water fine and i had some apple saus as a snack no problem It just the huge protine shakes i make so i need to learn my limit

That's strange she told you no more protein shakes. My Nutritionist asked me if I liked them and when I said yes she said good I want you to supplement at least one meal a day. Wow next fill is in September? Wonder why they are making you wait so long. I had my first fill 6 weeks after surgery and my second one two weeks later. Must be cause you vomited. They must think your getting plenty restriction. I got 6 cc's in an 11cc band and I am just now getting restriction.

Good Luck!! Sounds like you are on your way!

I didnt notice until I was doing my post op re reading of the paperwork that I wouldnt get a fill until 3 months after the surgery!!! I cant believe that!

Ive been lucky with the protein shakes so far, they make up 1-2 of my meals most days!
