First Fill Today



Recommended Posts

I was banded March 22,2013. Today was my first follow-up with the Doctor and my first fill. I found out I have a 10cc band. Forgot how much fill I got. I have lost post surgery 22 lbs with 2 weeks of staying the same weight . One week was the first week of Real food and second was last week. I was opting not to get a fill--- BUT the last 2 weeks I wasn't feeling full after my 1/2 c servings.

This going on Clear liquids for 2 days Is MENTALLY Challenging.. 2 days of the Full liquid is not going to be much better..

I no I can do this. But weather is raining and School's out for Summer so I 'm not working. Got to keep busy with something.

I have 39 more lbs to go to get to my Goal Weight. They didn't measure me so I don't no how much they have changed.

Can't wait to go down another size.. It's the Greatest feeling putting on clothes that I couldn't even get into 3 months ago..

I have been VERY constipated doc sez that's because I'm not drinking enough Water.

Sure glad I switched offices because Nurse at old office told me Well you won't drink as much as you did before banding.. It was because of her and her attitude and non compassion I switched offices.. Same Surgeon group just different location..

Well this is all for now.. Stay Positive Stay positive.. I keep saying this in my head.

Happy weight loss everyone!!!

      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.

        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!
