Sick!?!?! Or From Fill???



Recommended Posts

I got my first fill yesterday. (4cc's) Today was the first time I ate. I had a slim fast for Breakfast and was fine. Today at lunch I have a piece of chicken shredded tossed in lettuce tomatoes and some salsa on it. (I also had a few french fries... :(

About 5-10 minutes afterwards I started getting the jitters, a headache, and started feeling real tired and icky in my tummy. Same thing after dinner. Has anyone felt like this?

You cant expect to eat the same after a fill as to what you ate before it. Most after a fill go on mushies and liquids for a day or 2 to allow for any swelling to go down.

I am sure u can live without french fries too :)

I havent had my fill yet but boy have I had the headache and the jitters! either ate too fast, too big of a bite, or much. or ate the wrong thing. Its crazy >Mine are better when I follow all the right routine but its alot to remember. They say it gets easier but it sure doesnt feel like it.. hang in there

I'm with the others, I haven't received my first fill yet (not by choice, that's another story). My doc requires 2 days of liquids and 2 days of mushies after a fill. Check with your docs office or the paperwork they gave you.

I did that once when I was over filled,But I was able to even keep Water down! You got a big fill and it may just be to much, I did that when I first had my band and had all but 1cc removed..I am actually staring over after having a illness not due to the lab band at all . I have noticed after a week my band seemed tighter.

  1. I'm surprised to hear you got 4cc's on a first fill. My doc's office won't do more than .5cc's at a time....slow, slow, slow. You do need to do the liquid or mushies right after a fill.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
