VERY discouraged....

Hang in there, I do hear it get better. I was banded on April 15 and I've only lost about 28 lbs... so I think you're doing great.. I get discouraged sometimes also, but I have to remember it takes time, and everybodies body is different.... I have my 2nd fill on Monday, Aug 10th.. I have defintely fill restriction, I'm still on liquids though... that's my dr's order after his fills full liquids for a week... I'm even having troulbe taking vitamins.. they are getting stuck...From what I hear though it's not good to vomit daily.... you might have to get a slight unfill.. I hope when I start eating I don't exepricence this.. because it's very scary when a pill get stucks.... I think you need to call the dr' because it's been over a month since you had that fill and you don't want to cause your ban to slip... Everything will work out.. Hang in there..

 

what do you mean when you say it's scary when a pill gets stuck??? i haven't had this done yet but planning very soon i want to know everything
