Is this normal?



Recommended Posts

I got my first fill Monday afternoon. I feel like it is difficult to eat or drink much of anything. It feels like it takes a full minute or two for whatever I have to get my stomach after every drink or bite. I also kind of feel bubbling in my throat. Did you have any of those feelings? I am worried to try anything. :mellow:

Monday I ate a tiny bit of Soup about 8 hours after my fill. Yesterday I had a bite of applesauce and a cheesestick for lunch. (both barely went down, seemingly) Then, last night I tried to have soup with soft veggies in it and had to switch to just v8. I'm not drinking enough Water either because it just doesn't feel good.

I have 3 cc's in a 10 cc band. Is this normal?

I would appreciate your thoughts/opinions....

I think you need to call your dr, because you should be able to get Water down, and other liquds. You don't want to get de hyrdrated so you might need a slight unfil. I would call ASAP.

I would call your doctor. Are you having reflux issues as well?

You guys were right. I got stuck at lunch today and could barely breathe. I got right in to the doctor, but not before throwing up like 5 times. WORST FEELING EVER. Thanks for letting me know your thoughts. I got unfilled (some, not all) and am feeling a million times better. I'm on liquids for a day then mushies for a day or so. I'm just excited it is going down! Thanks again!

      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.

      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! 😞
