Cant Wait To Get My First Fill!!



Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if this is common but I really feel hungry all the time and I'm only 3 weeks post band. I fight the urge but sometimes I cave. Please I need advice on how to curb my appetite until my first fill! Thanks in advance!!

everyne is going to say the same thin here PROTIENT drinks at 3 weeks you need to just keep drink anything. I find Hot Drinks work the best. Dont be upset if the first fill doesnt feel any differance I have a 10 cc band and 44 cc fill st surgery dsy and now I hace 6cc and could use little more.

you will get there just keep drinking and resting.

yeah, i understand that. the hunger is coming back as you are healing. that was the case to me and i speak only from my experience. i guess until that first fill, and though others may not agree w/me, you must eat like you have restriction. i havent had a fill either, and i know i can and could eat more than my allotted cup of food but i stop as per what my dr told me. so i mentally eat and respond as if i am restricted. i drink alot and drink extra Protein Shake if i am needing it. i also eat when i am hungry. i am just careful about what i eat (for a snack). anyhow, hang in there and congrats on the surgery :)

The best practices for me were to to keep focused on a project, sip Water, or get out of the house for some exercise.

This is one of the more challenging parts of the weight loss journey...but totally doable if you have the proper mind set for success!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
