On The Road

Three months ago I got an unfil however the past few weeks I have noticed that some days everything gets stuck then I go on liquids and the next day I'm good. Or I'm able to eat a lot at night but only every other night. I have lost a total of 18lbs the past two monthes and just this past week I'm getting heartburn( I know my mc is coming @ the end of the week). Some days I feel like I have my sweet spot but today I can only sip Water. So the question is should I get an unfil on Wednesday or just stick it out?

On Monday I was filled, Tuesday all liquids and even yogurt went down. Now today ( Wednesday) I work up with a stuffy then funny nose aches and a headache. Nothing will stay down! I have never had the flu so I'm not sure of the symptoms. This is my third fill...should I wait another day and then call the Dr.? Or am I just coming down with something? Any suggestions would help!

So I went in today for an unfill....I feel much better I was very dehydrated and lost about16 pounds in two weeks...

I don't know about the stomach flu....I've tried water and chicken broth with no such luck. Now I'm on a popsicle....keep your fingers crossed!

Only 1 week for me...then mushies...

I have the same issue and I'm only a week and a half post op...I would like to start getting my fills!

So I am exactly one week post op and now can start the mushies stage. I have already been eating yogurt since day one. So here is the issue...I just ate two gerber stage 2 baby foods which is 7 ounce and I am still hungry. I have waited 20 minutes and I still want something else to eat? Did my band fall off?

Lol no there is nothing wrong with you...I talked to my friend who is a general Dr. and she said since I am still pretty young my swelling might have gone down quicker...but thank everyone who suggested the mash potatoes...I added fiber and protein and I felt much better today!

Oh ok that's what my Dr. suggested for now...

Same here!

Hello everyone! I am really thinking about getting banded...I am in Michigan and live in Royal Oak and my insurance will pay since I have been in the Beaumont Wieghtloss program for 6 months. I have only lost 15 pounds:(....So here are the questions...what is the typical timeline to get the procedure and what things need to be done before? Thanks!
