Your fill thoughts.....

So i have 5cc in a 10cc band,, I "think" i have good restriction I can eat very small amounts for lunch - and a little more at dinner time. -- my full feeling is usually uncomfortable.. thats how i know im done...

I am still trying to get the hang of eating slow and chewing well, it is alot harder than i thought it would be..

my issue is i am usually hungry before the 4 hour mark - so im trying to decide.. is my loss slow because i need a fill, or do i need to eat more and add in Snacks.

my meal today to give you an idea...

Protein Shake for Breakfast.

Lunch was some deli chicken over salad with some Italian dressing. ( 1.5 cup)

lunch was a broc and cheese calzone type thing - 1 cup roughly...

the thing is i was hungry again about 3 hrs ,, took another small piece of dinner but feel it sitting right at the top lol..

last fill i tired to get she gave me .5cc and i ended up havng to have it taken out before i even left the office.

trying to decide what to do when i go Thursday for my 6 month follow up.

You didn't say, are you getting enough liquids in? I too have a 10 cc band and am now at 6 cc's. I am having a rough time with it now. I spoke with my nutritionist today and she told me to go back to eating soft foods for a week or so. I just went up to the 6 cc's 1 1/2 weeks ago. I'm having back pain really bad, and we've decided that I must be overeating and that is my overly full feeling now. It's extremely uncomfortable. I was having troubles getting enough liquid in, but now that I've gone back to the soft foods, I feel like I'm getting closer to reaching my liquid intake goal.

So if you're not getting enough liquids in, try to do so. It really does help to keep you feeling full. If you are getting enough liquids, then you probably do need another small fill. Good Luck!
