Should I skip fill?

I am do for another fill but since my last one only liquids go down. If I eat solids it has to be mush.

Otherwise it hurts.

So I am thinking I am finally at the perfect spot. I have lost 3 pounds in the past two weeks.

Do you think I sould pass on the fill that I am scheduled for tomorrow?

U are too tight. U need to be filling your pouch with solids. This will just lead to big problems, u can't use your band for that kind of restriction. Have about 1/2 of the amount of fill u just had removed. I was too tight and always getting stuck and I had .1 cc (yes that little bit) removed and I am PERFECT.

You need a slight unfill!

That's not perfect- keep your appointment and get a slight unfill instead of a fill.

Thank you. I will go and have some removed. I am getting enough Protein and calories. Keeping track of all of that.

I just have to chew a LOT more than usual if I even want solids. I just had a 1/2 cup of chili, still had to really chew.

I get full a lot faster than I did before my last fill. Which makes me feel good, but when something gets hung, it kills me.

Definitely get an unfill. Even 0.25 - 1.00 cc can make a HUGE difference.

Well, I went in yesterday and the doctor took a look. The barium flowed nicely and he said that he sees that it could be tightened a bit more. So he put in .30

He said that it is most likely from morning sinuses and that in the morning your stomach is sometimes swollen.

Since I am better in the afternoon.

Going to try it for a few days and go back if I need to.
