At 246 lbs, checked into hospital 6 am, home by 11:30; no complications. On 5/13/10, at 233 lbs, had first fill, 3 cc's in 10 cc band. I feel no restriction whatsoever! As a matter of fact, I feel no diff today then before WLS. WTF?

Hi!

I was also banded in March (3/5) and just had my second fill this past Monday. Until Monday, I couls eat and drink whateverI wanted. I felt NO restriction at all. Fortunately, I was aware that this would be the situation from reading so many of the posts on this forum. Since my second fill, I am starting to feel some restriction. Not there fully, but getting there. As they say - we are in Bandster Hell. I have just been keeping my portions small (around 1 cup 3X a day) and walking like a crazy lady - 2-3miles per day. We have a March 2001 forum page - come join us there. Hang in there - you are doing GREAT!!!!

I'm in Bandster Hell...I am more hungry now then before my 1st fill which. My stomach growls mostly at night..drives me batty!!:) Every now and then I have restriction and do the "urp" thing. I'm so confused!:cursing: I can't wait until next month when I get fill #2, maybe then my sometime restriction will be more consistant.

I was banded on 3/17/10 and my second fill 5/20/10 and now have 3 cc's in a 10 cc band. Still not feeling much restriction, but I continue to lose about a one pound a week. I'm just happy I'm losing without much effort. I know I am eating considerably less then before banding. So consider each pound a blessing. Down 22 lbs since banding.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
