Do I Need A Slight Unfill? What do you think?



Recommended Posts

Am I getting enough food? Do I need an unfill?

Last night I weighed 3 ounces of lean ground turkey before I cooked it. I added about 1/8 oz of shredded cheese, 3 very thin pickle slices, two small baby carrots and a tablespoon of baked Beans to round out my meal. I could not finish the burger - ate just over 1/2 of it - no bread - and that was with some ketchup and a bit of mayo on it that should have made it "slide" a bit. I ate the carrots and beans (again, wet food) but felt uncomfortable for over an hour after dinner. I think what I ate would easily fit in 1/2 cup measure but it seemed to be too much.

Then, for Breakfast I had 2 heaping teaspoons of Greek yogurt with a sprinkling of Kashi Go Lean crunch - about 1/4 cup. I brought apple sauce but couldn't even take a bite of it because I felt overly full again.

A few other things to consider:

1) I had a very bad stuck incident last week that resulted in two days of vomiting/sliming on all solid food

2) I recently flew (landed Sunday evening)

3) I have a sinus infection and am taking anti-biotics

4) I have my period

Is less than 1/2 cup of food per meal a suitable amount for someone who needs to lose 125 lbs?

Hi Sounds to me with everything you have going on flying, sinus etc...you could be a little swollen..stay on yogurt and Protein drinks for a day or 2 if it does not resolve, call the doctor. He might have to unfill. I just had to go in for a unfill, way to tight could not eat..coughing..just miserable and I am still on liquids till tomorrow because of swelling.

Good look.

As long as I could eat good solid food I wouldn't do an unfill. If I started counting on just sliders and shakes then I would. You probably still have swelling in your stomach. I would give it 2 weeks to go down. Small meals are fine you probably just want to make sure your getting your Protein. If not I would supplement with Protein Shakes.< /p>

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
