Evere feel like there is no fill even though you know there is Fluid in your band. I have been banded since 1/30/12. I have lost 50lbs since then. I have 3cc in my band. Some days I know its there cause what I eat and how I eat lets me know its there. But today not so much. Today was oatmeal for Breakfast the band let me know its there. Then at lunch I had some frozen yogurt with toppings and I knew that wasnt a real lunch so I got a bean burrito which had to be a pound just Beans cheese rice sour cream whole wheat tortilla and I was able to eat the whole thing. I know I shouldnt have but it was yummy and so far no ill effects.

Hi. I seem to have a hungry day every third or so day. My weightloss has been ok, alot less than others but I'm pleased. I have been having treats but mostly within a calorie allowance. I don't see it as a problem as I know my food intake will become more and more restricted so what I eat day might not be possible in a month. I'm not hard on myself(anymore).

I had my second fill this week which has taken me to 5.5ml in a 10ml band. The last two evenings I felt I was eating almost hourly as I wasn't satisfied. Today tho some restriction has kicked in because I can't manage more than 4-6 forkfulls of food as I have vomited.

Hope I get that with every meal as I'll be well on my way!!:)

My band has felt as though it has nothing in it for months now.I know that is not the case but I can't wait to get back to where my fill level was previously as this sucks.

      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.

        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.

      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!
