Definatly sounds like you are overfilled. Tjhis happpened to me in the beginning of October. My dostor completely unfilled me. I did not have any slippage or erosion but he wanted me to wait 2 weeks before getting another fill . Let me tell you the second time around and I have not got stuck on anything and from day 1 of my surgery I got stuck on everything. You may be looking at an unfill as a bad thing but It is not Just think what would happened if the doctor had to remove your band I wish you luck and keep us updated Vickie

Hi LDM, I know and feel your pain. you should be having something every 2 hours or so. I was on carnation instant Breakfast and I drank 4 oz every 2 hours and when I went to my mushy stage I would continue the Carnations, in between meals. I never got hungry until it came close to my first fill. What is your typical day on the liquids? At this point in time I dont see anything wrong with the cottage cheese... I dont think you have slipped or anything like that. The Cottage chees is a good nutritious protien meal, especially in week 2. The reason you are probally still hungry is because you are not getting enough protien that is why I say every 2 hours. Also are you getting in your water? you need at least 8 glasses of water per day this will also curve your hunger. I know it is hard, Good Luck you will be fine Remember this is your healing stage and the doctors really dont expect any significant weight lose but they also dont want any weight gain either. Good Luck and remember we are here for you Vickie

bumping for the gals in the chat rooms now

Hoping for people to come in and chat 3 are there so far Vickie

Hey everyone add me to your Myspace http://www.myspace.com/vickie1177

Hey everyone just thought I would update everyone on how it is going with nothing in my band.... Well I have absolutely no restriction which feels really weird especiall since I have had restriction from the day I had surgery. I went yesterday for yet another barium test just to make sure that everything is fine and as before it is still in tact. So my next fill is on Tuesday the 24th. I can not wait to get some in there. Although I lost 11 pounds in the 3 days I kept getting stuck I did put on 3 of them. So i feel as if I am doing right with no fill. I figured I post this because people may have some questions if they are unfilled and my experience is here for newbies and oldies Iulizbug I have seen your pictures and you are absolutly beautiful and your weight lose is exceptional. Keep up the great work I can wait to get to onederland only 7 pounds Yipee. Hopfully the fill will get me there and then I will be very happy Vickie Vickie

I guess it all depends on what you do for a living I am in the office most of the week sometimes I travel but I planned my traveling around my surgery. My customers understood I had my surgery on Tuesday and back to work on friday of that same week +Good luck

I am doing much better i go back kto the doctors on Tuesday the 24th for a fill cant wait. Although I lost 11 pounds in 3 days I only gained back 3 pounds so I am pretty happy about that. I can tell you that I have absolutely no restriction that I could eat a sub if I wanted to but I havent I have been good.... Thank you for asking Vickie

Ok i am in @ the square 1 mall

Hey Everyone I just wanted to see who was completely unfilled and why. How long did it take for you to refilled again. The reason why I ask is because my doc unfilled me completely today and I have to wait 3 weeks till he can put some more in me. I did not have a slipped band just had some complications from an overfill on Tuesday and my doctor just wanted to be safe and take all the saline out all 2.3 cc's. All input is welcomed even if you have not had an unfill and know of someone who did it would be very helpful Thanks in advance Vickie

Well you know what they say "it is better to Burp and Taste it then to fart and waste it"
