Just had my third fill today



Recommended Posts

I was wondering why some who have the surgery have problems eating when eating too much and I haven't had any. Granted I'm glad I haven't but just wondering. I think when I reach my fullness is when I get kind of like and ache between my shoulder blades...that's the only clue I have at the moment to when I probably have eaten enough. I haven't had that in a long time but that is what I felt after surgery when I ate too much I think? And I had a mild feeling today. I'm mostly just on soft foods and everything is going down great. Is that because I haven't reached my restriction yet? Any input is greatly appreciated:smile2:

I was just wondering?? Something I said:biggrin: I had no sence of resriction this morning drinking my coffee either. :unsure: I don't know just was expecting something this morning and so far nothing. Could it be I just have not enough restriction yet??

Any input?? Thanks

I did not get any restriction until my 4th fill and even then i could still eat more than the required amount. I just had my 6th fill and i am really restricted, I think too much so, so I am having a little unfill today. Everyone is different. It takes some of us a little longer to reach restriction. Then again, I would rather have too little restriction than too much because I haven't kept anything down in three days.

Thank you so much for your reply....I was getting to wonder if anything was going into the band or something. same thing today I don't feel restricted at all. At least I know sometimes it takes longer...guess I'm just getting anxious. I did read be too retricted is far worse so glad I'm not there..but I do hope you get to feeling better soon...this sure is an experience isn't it....and everyone is so different.

thanks again, rpm2010

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
