Got An Unfill Yesterday



Recommended Posts

What a DIFFERENCE!!! I made a stupid move and waited to long to go for unfill (over a month!). Wasn't able to get food down at all this weekend and kept waking Sunday night choking on slime, so went in first thing yesterday. She took out 1.5cc, I feel like a million bucks!!! I'm such a procrastinator, and I kept thinking I just wasn't following the rules correctly, give it another day ect...If you think you're too tight, go to the dr asap!! Besides the fact that I could have choked to death in my sleep, the band could have slipped just because I was trying tough it out. Live and learn, right??

been there, done that twice! I got myself in right away the 2nd time. The first time it happened I got in after suffering for 7 hours.......7 hours too long! Luckily my PA came in at 9pm that night for me.

I had 5cc in a 10cc band. Now I have 4.5 and I think it'll be a while before I get another one.

      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!
