3Rd Fill Today!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone:)

I got my 3rd fill today after work.

I already had 5cc in my band and no restriction. My Doc decided to put another 2.5 in and I could not swallow water! I was so surprised, it was great to finally feel the band work! Lol

To this point I swear it felt like I never had the surgery and have lost my 20 lbs with pure will power. Anyways, we decided 2.5 was a lil much and he took out 0.5. He thinks this one should do the trick!! I sure hope that 3x is the charm!!!!

That pure will power is a tough thing.

Hope this fill works out for you.

I get my first fill one week from today, excited and scared.

PS. I only see one post.

When was your surgery? I am so anxious to get my first fill- I am running on pure willpower right now!

My surgery was Valentines Day 2/14/12...

Yes, willpower is no joke! Just feels like "any other diet" until we get restriction! (that quote is used a lot but sooooo true!) good luck to you as well:)

I got my third fill last Thursday. Woohoo I have restriction. I have had to slow waaaay down eating and my portions are half. I'm only at 4.6 in a 10 band but boy do I feel it now.

      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!
