  1. I'm calling my doctor today thanks for the help everyone.
  2. No they didn't have me drink anything before I left only on the first fill under the fluo scope and my surgeons office is closed no emergency #
  3. I had a fill this Thursday I am at 8.2 I can't keep water or food down this hasn't happened before with my fills. Is it too tight or will it loosen up
  4. Okay thanks for letting me know!!!
  5. Does anyone know if tanning effects the band or could cause any problems?
  6. Doe anyone know if tanning effects the band or could cause any problems?
  7. Oh okay thank you I think I will try to contact my nutritionist first thing in the am and see if she has time to talk to me. I don't want to miss this fill because of eating or drinking:)
  8. I'm having my first fill tomorrow at 1:45 and I do not know if I'm allowed to eat a small breakfast before that, because I called my NUT twice but she never called back, so I hope someone can help me out if you know thank you
  9. Yes I had a few but thought they were a meal cause of the amount of Protein so then I wasn't eating I lost weight but wasn't sure if it was okay to only drink them for a meal:)
  10. Do the protein shots count as a meal? Cause they are like 42 to 46 grams of protein.
  11. I was banded on the 15th if Feb they explained to me that I am wide open because I have not had a fill so that things can heal and the swelling will go down. I know how u feel I thought I was doing something wrong cause I didn't feel full, but I have been trying to slowly eat how I will when I reach my sweet spot on fills.
