  1. Little unfill for sure!!!! If you can't even get liquids down in the a.m you are too tight and trust me that is no way to live because I lived with slimming for months because I was so scared to get some taken out because I didn't want to gain weight but when I finally did I was sooooooo relieved! It was the best thing I ever did!
  2. My doctor that gave me my unfill yesterday had a hard time getting into my port she even used a sonogram thing to find it and it was right under the skin but when she went to stick me she couldnt find it she said my port was very loose like mobile..is that normal
  3. Omg!!!!! I had 7.5cc in 10cc band and I had 1.4 takin out and I can already tell the difference!!!!! Amazing difference! I drank a whole bottle of water without gurgling or hurting! I would definely think about getting some takin out!!!!
  4. So since you had some taken out are you losing any more weight?? Do you fill full after a cup? I am getting a little unfill in the morning I am leaving trouble losing weight and I slime ever single day I am tired of living that way. After everything you ate or drink did you gurggle a lot? I do and it's very embarrassing.
  5. Hello thanks for replying! I had a fill jun 4 and have been having stuck episodes ever since so I've been sticking to nothing but slider foods and Soups I can barely get aanything else down and I'm just getting sick of it it's so exhausting!!! I would rather not eat at all because I'm scared I would have to throw it back. So I stick to what I know will go down and sometimes my slider foods don't want to go down easy! I would rather get some takin out instead of living day to day wondering if I will be able to eat anything!!! I barely even drink during the day because I'm battling my food for hours. I'm miserable. I have went from 189 to 173 but it's by not eating and I have 0 energy to work out it's been 2 months since I worked out.
  6. They moved it to the morning!!!!
  7. I can't drink or eat anything at all in the morning except for coffee...overtime I eat I slime really bad or my throat "talks" makes gurgling noise for awhile which is very embarrassing!! I have an appt for an unfill for aug 27 what do you guys think??
  8. People are going to be honest and it's a public post so what do you expect yeah post what you want but don't be surprised when someone has something to say that you might not like.
  9. Really? Wow. Come on now I don't think she said anything that bad for you to go crazy like that. Grow up and if you can't take criticism then you might need to find a different website.
  10. Sometimes when I eat well most of the time...I slime really really bad sometimes I can wait for it to pass but the majority of the time I can't help but spit it back up. Its never my food that comes back up its just really think slimey salvia. Would this indicate I'm too tight or I'm eating too fast?
  11. Great information!!! I am taking way to big of bites!!! I am 7.5cc in my 10cc and have a hard time getting my food down. I don't think I'm too tight because I still get hungry a lot I just eat too fast too big. I need to invest in this baby spoon thing and take small bites like mis73!!
  12. I was having gas pains so bad last night in my stomach it had me hunched over and kinda sweaty it was hurting so bad my husband thought I was in labor or something lol it was horrible!!!!!! But I didn't eat anything for supper last night but I was still filled with painful gas!!!!! I almost to myself to the ER thats how bad it got!
  13. It's very healthy for you. Look it up. Lots of vitamins and fiber drinks. Not just a diet. But I have to be on a diet even with having the band I don't lose unless I eat right. Is this not your case? So I mean what's the difference? Maybe I'm not at my right restriction?
  14. I was banded July 20, 2011 and I have lost 53 pounds and I was stuck at 186 for 3 months and got a fill and lost 10 pounds and I've been there ever since my last full June 4. I always lose 10 lbs the first 2 weeks after my fill then nothing until I get another fill. But I really don't think I need a fill because I occasionally get stuck I think I just need to focus on chewing and smaller bites then I'll be golden!
  15. Even though it's been over a month since my last fill?
  16. Thank you so much for your advise!!!! Your A sweetheart!!!! I will take your advise and I'll let you know how it goes!
  17. Didn't mean to send that yet! I guess I didn't think about that.... Even though I'm only eating chips and mash potatoes I may not think I'm eating that much during the day but those Calories add up! I do feel like I need to get an unfill I just felt so scared that if I got unfill I would gain weight!
  18. Great advice!!!! Thank you very much!!!
  19. I had a fill to 7.5 June 4, 2012. I lost 10 pounds. But like always I lose 10 pounds after each fill then I get stuck. I have been slimming a lot lately it's not really my food coming up just really think slimy saliva. Sorry TMI! I had surgery July 20, 2011 and have only lost 55 pounds so I'm pretty slow loser! Do I need an unfill? Is it dumb to think that if I get an unfill I might start losing again? I find myself getting so tired of not having anything go down so I resort to chips, mash potatoes soups! I'm tired of living off those things. Maybe I'm not eating as slow or small as I thought i was. Another thing, when I eat chips or mash potatoes I feel like I can eat a whole lot is that because they go through the band so Easily? I'm confused on what I need to do! I have an app to get an unfill Monday.
  20. Thank you thank you thank you !
  21. Thank the both of you! I feel fantastic! And when I look back at old pics I want to vomit I will never go back to that! I guess I have gotten so comfortable with how I look that I haven't been working as hard at it! I'm happy for everyone's loss! Let's keep it up!!! ))
