JGirl Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 OK, here is some uplifting info! 1 month post surgery, down 10 lbs, and i got 1cc fluid in a fill (it was supposed to just be a check up appointment!) today! My Dr wants me to get a head start on the restriction feeling since i will be traveling alot soon. Feel GREAT! BTW, I asked him about protein because of all the info I have been reading. He said 60 grams/protein a day, so what I have been doing is 2 scoops of injury protein (200 calories, 40 grams protein) in a 160z bottle that I nurse all day long as my water source. All Drs seem to vary some on this....anyway, no negatives here, banding was the best thing to happen to me in years and years!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaMichelle Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Glad your fill went well, I also use the Unjury Protein (www.unjury.com) though I don't mix it with water (I usually put it in my soups and shakes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 That's fabulous, what a nice surprise!! The opposite happened to me...I went for a fill and ended up having a check up. I still have some restriction, so my surgeon said I am not ready for one yet. Good Luck! Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
