Last week....220.00 This week.....214.50 Total loss of 5.50 Woo Hoo !!

last week..221today...........220 this is such a struggle for me right now. I have had 2 fills. 5cc's total in a 10 cc band. I have NO restriction. I get my next fill Oct. 22nd. My lowest wt was 218.50 but I have gained. To all of you that lost...wtg !!

Where do you find sugar free yogurt, and what brand is it? I can't find sugar free.

Eroded in your stomach? Ouch. How did you find that out? Were you experiencing alot of pain? Will you be getting a new band at a later date?

No, I wasn't sore.

Ladies, they call this Bandster Hell. I was banded Aug. 4th. I have had 2 fills since then. I had my last fill 3 days ago. My band size is 10cc, I now have 6cc's in my band. I don't see much difference in the way I feel before I had my fill. I have been told it could take 3-6 fills before we get to the Happy Zone. Hang in there, drink your water, count your calories, eat several small meals a day so that you won't overeat. I know what you are all going through. It will get better. :smile2:

My band size is 10 cc's. I went for my 2nd fill yesterday which gave me a total of 6.25 cc's in my band. I go for my 3rd fill Oct. 20th. I was starving with 5 cc's after my last fill in Aug. Hopefully you misunderstood the Dr. about 4cc's is all you can have in your band. I'm hoping 6.25 cc's gives me better restriction for a longer period of time.

Thanks....today i got my fill. He put 1.25 cc's in which gives me 6.25. I am hungry now since today is Clear liquids only. I will find out tomorrow.

I have no restriction. I can eat anything !! Tomorrow I go in for my 2nd fill. I feel like I don't have a band. My band is 10cc's and I have a total fill of 5ccs. Hoping tomorrow will help me.

I looked and I couldn't find where you download it.

Hi....I noticed you're from Ft Worth. I live in Grand Prairie, but I do everything in Ft. Worth, was raised there. My Dr. is in Ft Worth also. I love scrapping too. When did you get your band and how are you doing? I've lost 26 1/2 lbs. I got my first fill Aug. 26th. I had good restriction for 3 days, now I am hungry and can eat anything. My 2nd fill is Sept 23rd. I have a 10 cc band with 5ccs fill now. The nurse told me Friday it could take 3-6 fills to get to my sweet spot. Good Luck.

I got my first fill Aug 26th. I now have 5cc's in a 10cc band. The first 3 days were great, now I am having hunger pains between meals. My next fill is Sept. 23rd. Getting my fill was very uncomfortable to me, not looking forward to the next one.

I was told my pouch would only hold 4oz. Nutritionist told me to eat 1/2 cup per meal. Dr that did my fill told me to keep food amount the size of my fist.

I have always wondered why they use different size bands. Do you know. When I had my last fill, Dr told me I had a 10cc size band. I ate 1/2 cup of Rice Krispies this morning at 8:30 and I am very hungry now. I have to wait until the 23rd for another fill. Felt great for 3 days after fill, started feeling hungry sooner yesterday.

How many cc's is in your band now? I was banded same day as you, I have 5cc's now.

So sorry to hear you are so hungry. I was banded Aug. 4th. During surgery my Dr. put 2 cc's in my band. I had to return 4 days later and he removed 1cc. I went back Aug. 26th and he put in 4cc's, which now gives me 5ccs. I can eat anything, I noticed yesterday that I'm feeling more hungry. So...I am trying to eat very small amount several times a day so I won't overeat all at once.

Hi everyone. I just bought some Whey Protein powder, vanilla flavor. Does anyone have some shake recipes you can share with me.?

hi...i'm doing much better now, but....i am hungry. lol i get my first fill next tuesday the 26th. Congratulations on your surgery date. just make sure you drink your Water and don't get dehydrated like i did, and use your bullets. good luck to you. let me know how you are doing after surgery. Lots of Luck Pj
