Second fill today and full of Burps HELP...

My second fill and I am constantly feeling air rising up my throat. I am trying to drink liquids but even those cause the air to rise. I feel a little better when I "pb" (throw up)as I have read on here because an actual burp comes out with a little liquid or saliva. I guess I have to wait until tomorrow anyway but I am looking for advise???   Could it be the band is to tight? I went in and got 2 cc's but she had to remove 1 right way so I only got 1 cc. I am at 6.5 cc's since surgery (06/15).

07/15 First Fill

Ok, it has been one month since I had surgery (06/15) and I lost nothing but what I did the first week. I was very upset to say the least finding that I could eat anything as I did before surgery. Plus I was hoping to have lost at least 10 lbs :frown:   The PA said I had 3.5 cc and she added 2.0 cc so now I am at 5.5 cc's and I guess we have to see see :thumbup: I also go back in 2 weeks to see if I need more in my band.   Feeling discouraged :thumbup:

Almost 2 weeks since banding...

Well, I feel really good My port incision still hurts and the swelling is going down to an extent that I can feel the port when I press on it. Losing average 1 per day. Going back to work Tuesday so I plan on being alot more active. It is tough now because it is like 150 degrees here in S. Florida :thumbup:. I am going to try a bike soon to to see how that goes.   Getting a fill in 2 weeks already. I told the doc I dont feel any restriction. I am not hungry but could probably over do it witho

1 week today since surgery

The soreness is getting much better. I am wondering though...is my band tight enough? I have not pushed the limits to find out but I can eat a hotdog on a bun, had a cup of spaghetti with a meatball. I have the cuts so I knowwwww I had surgery but I why can I eat these things?? :thumbup:   Maybe I need a fill as my band may not be tight enough????:tt1:   Going to the doctor on Thursday but if anyone has the same experince please let me know...

Day 3

Well, I thought I would share a few things and maybe get some feedback. I had my surgery on 06/15. I am completely still sore and am having a hard time getting off the couch where I need to sleep because it is easier than the bed.   I have no appeitite either? I am making myself have the requirements but have not had a hunger pain yet. I have eaten 2 pieces of dry toast to absorb the medicine as it sits a little weird and Jello isnt enough. I am very suprised I could do a piece of toast witho
