fills, restriction, and water.

Just got the 2nd fill, 7.5 in 10cc band. I am concerned I will never be "just right" because right now in the morning I have restriction can eat and drink but VERY slow and get full in a few bites. but as the day wears on my Lasix (Furosemide) kicks in, I dump Water big time and by lunch I can eat about anything. still a little slower but not really any restriction.

So the problem is if they get it so I have restriction at supper and all evening, then Am I going to be choking and unable to eat or drink anything at Breakfast? I am thinking this is so. Must be others with a similar issue. a lot of us take it for BP and other problems. What can I expect with my 3rd fill comes up in about 3 weeks?

You could just have a liquid for breakfast, like a protein shake. Then have something soft for lunch. That's what I do. As you lose the weight you might need to adjust the amount of that medication you need as well. My BP is down from 140/80 to 90/50 with diet alone. Then you won't have that problem any more! (I have my band quite tight, that's why I do liquids in the morning)

Good luck!

I canceled my 3rd fill and rode with where I was for many months. That is where all my weight dropped off steady. If you get very hungry between "meals" maybe a tiny fill is in order.

My sweet spot is someplace around 5.3cc in a 10cc band.
