Slowly I am learning what I need to do. Before my fill I could take pills without crushing them. After my fill (only 1.5 cc in a 4 cc band) I would throw up every day. Sometimes even after liquids! Yesterday I crushed all my pills and didn't throw up once! I'm wondering if maybe my pills was causing blockage. I'm not sure how long it takes those pills to disolve but the last week has been pretty tough. I was afraid to eat! I kept remembering the pain I would get, having to throw up and that would stop me from eating. Yes, the weight loss was great. Almost 1lb per day. Everyday is a learning experience.
Whether it's crushing the pills or not, it seems to be better so I'll keep crushing them. - My fill has definately made a difference.
