Hate Getting Fills!

I just got a fill on Monday since January, now I have to learn all over what I can and cannot tolerate. I do have a good restriction but now I am back to discovering my foods. I find that after each fill, my food list changes. I definitely cannot do bread period..

  • I always have a learning curve after a fill. The good news is that once you reach your green zone, you won't need to get fills very often. I go about once per year for a little top-off.

    I can do rice but no pasta....I so miss spaghetti and shrimp alfredo. What I find that after each fill, my food tolerance changes. One thing that never changes is chicken. I love some chicken.

Well I had to get an unfill yesturday, and I just lost 22 pounds in about 9 weeks, very strange, I should have to get a fill, not an unfill, has this ever happened to anyone out there? I became very tight after losing the weight, so I have a appt for an upper GI on Tuesday to see if anything is ging on in there with the band?

I am trying to hang in there. Liquids can go down but not a lot and I am full fast. I don't even want to try eating anything. Like now, I don't know my full spot, I have to learn again since I am tighter.

My band is feeling super tight this week, and Im having sinus issues ... I never connected the 2 .... interesting

My doctor told that I will not need another for 5 months. I am really trying to deal with this one. I am not sure if it is because that TOM will be here next week. I never gotten a fill before my monthly. It is either because it is too much saline or the TOM....

If you cannot get liquids down, call your doctor! Dehydration is nothing to mess with. If going down slow, sip, sip, sip. Get some gatorade and get as much liquid down as you can. Getting hydrated will help loosen the band as well.
