SO I WENT FOR MY 2nd FILL YESTERDAY.. what a disaster. they put in 1.5 ccs I was good all day till I got home from work I had a glass of milk and that was it i was throwing up for 3 hours. I had to go in to the hospital for a emergency visit. To make a long story short I only have 2 ccs in now. I had 3cc before my fill. SO im less and I am so nervous that I am going to eat like a pig. I had no restriction before. I am going to try and not to, but this is harder than I thought, I might do 5 pr 6 small little meals a day. that seems to work with me. My doctor also said that I am very sensitive to the fills so, I will only get like 1/2 ccs from now on. Ughh Im so disappointed
Hiii Banders.
Is anyone else having this issue. I was banded May 4th and had one fill. I am going in tomorrow for fill #2.
For the past 2 weeks I feel like I am eating Like the way i use to. I feel like I haven't learned a thing. I have No restriction at all and thats what was helping me.
But my question is after the 2nd fill do you feel the restriction again.
and do you eat less.
I feel like I have no restriction at this point. The getting full quickly stage is starting to ware off. Is this normal? I am on the diet that the doctor gave to me and in the beginning I had to walk to feel better because I felt to stuffed on a little bit of food. Now I can eat the same meal and still be hungry and want more. I dont drink enough water this is my one downfall. I am trying so hard to get all the water in I can but its definitely not the 64 oz or water a day they recommend. I am having enough protien. I dont have any fills yet.
I got banded back on may 3rd. Ive been on liquids and Tomorrow I can start mushies. But i have to tell you I am hungry every hour!!!
Is this happening to everyone during there liquids
I am jumping on the BAND wagon... no pun intended. Any last suggestions. I have lost about 10 lbs on this pre diet and I feel ok. Dont get me wrong I want a piece of steak with italian bread. But thats what got me to this weight in the first place. I have my surgery may 3rd. Yikes.
One question, how long did everyone feel uncomfortable, or felt ok to go back to work...
Hi,
Anyone out there at the 6 month mark??? I have alot of questions. I have 4.5 ccs in my 10 cc band. My weight loss has slowed down drastically. I went to the doctor and I only lost a half a pound in 5 weeks. I have noticed my food intake has gotten to be a lot more. I am not sure if I Stretched out my top pouch. how do you know if you do stretch it. will you feel it? And if it is stretched can it go back to normal.
I know they said that the weight loss will slow down, but I didnt think this slow.
Anyone having the same issue?
