8 weeks post op band

  • Popular Post

I everyone I wanted to check in. I had my first fill about a week ago, I feel great I'm down 73 lbs and loosing quickly. I fill great, I've been exercising more and finally toning. I'm down three pant sizes and maybe working on the next size down. I do a lot of Water aerobics and walk a bunch. I hope everyone else is doing good. I had 1.4cc filled out of my 4cc band.

Eating about 1/3 cup and I'm full. Gotta eat about 40-60g of protien and fit in what else I can between veggies and fruit. I make my own own ton chicken wraps and been eating great. Finally I have left overs in the fridge. Feels so weird to have extra food. Guess my friend will help with that.

Here are my before and after 8 week photos

I'm 6 weeks out and have not drop very much weight yet, sounds like you are doing great, congratulations.

How much is "Not drop very much weight yet"?

I lost 12 lbs the first two weeks and then nothing for the next 3.5 months. Not till I got my 3rd fill did I start to lose more weight. It's difficult when your band isn't adjusted yet. Just keep getting fills till you feel satiety enough to eat much less food.

Remember, this is just another diet till you have restriction.
