Hi China. Why did you wait 5 months before getting a 2nd fill? Were you losing weight? I do not have my first fill yet. Does the doctor determine how much to fill the band by some formula?

i did have another one before but was over filled and did not know what the procedure was for that so i went thru hell for 2.5wks. then after it was taken out i was scared to get another one until now when i really had no choice. i think all dr's are different im's does it according to what and how much you eat but the most one can get with him is 1.5cc

Wal-Mart sell 100 calorie packs of Emerald Cocoa Roasted Almonds. They are really good. If you have a Sam's Club near you, they sell a large container of the almonds.

wwhat is a 5 day pouch diet.....do you use it after a fill that is too tight

The pouch test is really done before a fill to determine if you really need one. Here is the link Surgical Weight Loss 5 Day Pouch Test. It is basically a modified version of the liquid diet from after surgery. It helps to shrink the pouch.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
