Think I am too tight

[LVGirl 4]

I had my 2nd fill 3 weeks ago. I am at 3 cc in a 10 cc band. I was fine the first week (definitely had restriction) but since week 2 I have been having a LOT of trouble with getting stuck. Basically every meal I do...even with taking very small bites. I can't even take a large drink of Water without it coming back up. Isn't it unusual for it to be delayed like that? I thought I could hold out until my appt next week but everything I seem to eat/drink is uncomfortable going down.

I've read that it takes a couple of weeks to really feel the full effect of the fill. Also, my band gets super tight right before my time of the month. If it is that tight that you are not eating - call your doctor! Good Luck to you!!

I can eat, it is just pretty uncomfortable. I think I'll give them a call.

After not being able to get broth down comfortably today I called and am going in for an unfill tomorrow.

Relief!!! The PA took out the 1cc that she put in last month and I instantly felt better. Too tight indeed!

Very glad you were in the right mind to get an unfill.

Remember - a tiny unfill can be the difference between being too full and gaining weight (due to eating sliders) and being in your green zone.

Congrats on being back in a good place.
