4th Lap Band Adjustment



Recommended Posts

I got my 4th fill last Wednesday, since then I've noticed that I can't eat much if anything before 1 or 2 o'clock. I can get more food down the later it gets but I am concerned because I don't want to eat and go to bed. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what do you eat before bedtime that won't destroy you on the scale?

Thanks!

My dr. says that is normal and I have heard other people say that also. So I drink a cup of warm tea in the morning before Breakfast and it seems to work. good luck on your journey.

That is also my concern, After my second I can only do warm liquids usually just like you until 1 or 2 pm.

Very normal. I can never eat Breakfast and most days can't do much for lunch either.

Very normal, I usually have a Protein Drink in the mornings. Just like my wedding ring, my band is very tight in the morning and actually too loose in the evening. Not because of calories but because of heartburn I have to really work not to snack at night...its all good!

this is me everyday. i don't get truly hungry until around 1pm. i have warm tea or coffee in the morning to help the tightness, then i drink a Protein Shake in the mornings. afternoons i have tuna salad, or chicken salad or egg salad. sometimes i have Soup, just make sure you get your Proteins in. for dinner, i eat a sensible dinner, if i am hungry before bed, i have a greek yogurt.

it is normal to be tighter in the mornings.

Thank you all! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Sometimes I have difficulty getting Water down in the mornings but I will definitely try to get in the Protein Shakes in the morning/afternoon.

I have only had one fill and it was 2cc's. Don't feel any restriction. How many cc's before you feel it?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
