    I have had 3 fills totaling 3.5cc. I had my surgery on 12/30/09. My last .5ccs was on 05/19/09. I find myself being unable to digest more foods such as bread, tuna, salmon, and beef. Since I have not lost anymore since my last fill I feel I may need another adjustment. I was advised to come in every six weeks if I am not losing 1-2 pounds a week. I am just nervous that soon I won't be able to eat not much other than pureed food. Is this what I have to look forward to? I am missing something. I even have that uncomfortable feeling like something is stuck in my throat when I drink something too fast. Any advice will be appreciated.

    I am starting having that feeling again today like constant heart burn. When I eat it is like it still is not going doing as if I have something in the back of my throat with the urge to burp. I am eating child size portions and trying to chew 20 times with each bite. Will this feeling go away. I have already had to reduce my fill earlier this week. I can not do it again. will this feeling pass after a few weeks. The feeling even exists when I drink water.

    Thank you to all those who gave me advise. I went into my doctor's office and my band was too tight. He took out .5 CC. I am at a total of 3.5 CC since my op on 12/30/08. That does't seem like much right? I did lose 4 pounds since last Tuesday. I almost hated to have the band losened. I think I am down about 28 pounds. My progress is moveing quiet slow.

    I had my third adjustment on Tuesday. I had liquids for the first two days. Then was eating lite. On saturday I started sliming and then vomiting. This has been occuring whenever I drink liquids or eat solids. Liquids even feel too large to go down my throat. Can anyone tell me what this sounds like a sign of. I am concerned. Will this pass and why did it start happening four days after my adjustment and not imediately.:thumbup:
