six band fill

I got my sixth band fill two weeks ago, and this has been the most difficult yet. I had not had a fill since Feb. ( I've lost 96 lbs so far), but I had continued to loose weight. I was starting to feel some hunger and wanting to get these last 25 pounds off for selfish reasons. While things are improving, meats are still difficult . I've had some days were I've thrown up, even though I only ate two bites of food. I've lost six pounds in two weeks. The only way I can describe things, is it feels tight! I need to get back on the protein shakes, but am so burned out on them after over one year of drinking them. Still hammering it out at the gym and can see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! Goal weight insight!!!

Why do you need your band so tight you can only drink your protein? If it's been 2 weeks and you're still that tight it sounds like you need a small unfill if you can't eat solid proteins. Good luck to you! -BG

Hi

I am a new lap bander. Only one week post-op. Can you tell me about your experience? I am curious about your comment on not being able to eat meat at this point.
