  1. Thinking I need a fill

    · cherylanne · 03/27/10 08:11 PM

    :rolleyes:I was banded on12/28 and have only had one fill. Two days after getting my first fill my gallbladder went out and was removed on Feb 16th. Since lapband surgery I have lost about 30 lbs, with the pre-op diet it's about 50 altogether. I have been on a plateau for the past 3 weeks and can eat much more than usual including most breads etc. I am thinking I can eat more than normal, at least a cup to a cup and a half because I need a fill. Anyway I still worry about stretching my pouch and am thinking of going on shakes for a couple of days, but I am truly sick to death of shakes. Anyway does this sound like I just need to get a fill? Any opinions would help, and I am STARVING all the time.

  2. New to lapband talk

    :confused:Hello, I am new to Lap Band Talk. I had LAP-BAND® surgery on 12/28 and will not get a fill until Feb 10th. The problem is that right now I feel like I can eat a cow. I suppose this is bandster hell. I can eat at least a cup of food, maybe more. I was so worried that I would stretch my pouch that I read about and decided to try the 5 day pouch diet which is making me lose weight, but I am having a hard time sipping instead of gulping down the liquids. I am not enjoying this hunger at all. Does anyone have any suggestions. I am wondering how I am supposed to stick to half cup when I am hungry and it looks like more is going down!
