Ok, everyone. I need some help. I dont know what is going on with my body and I am just PRAYING that i am not the only one going thru this and someone can help me.

I have to start at the beginning, so here goes: I had my surgery on 12-28-2011. No problems. It went beautifully. no nausea, no vomiting, i mean nothing. I was never hungry. I have lost 50 pounds since then, which is incredible and I am very happy about that.

So, i went in for a fill(my first fill) in April. And wouldnt you know it, the port was flipped! So, i had surgery the next week and they fixed me up. Again not one problem. NOthing. NO hunger, just continued with my 4 ounces of protein and 1/2 cup veggies like I had been doing. So, on May 22, 2012, i had my first fill. I got 3 ccs in my 10cc band. And was fine. I was only able to eat 2 ounces the first 2 days, and then after that, could fit 4 ounces in there and 1/2 cup veggies, like normal. so, i went for a second fill on June 19, 2012. She gave me 1 cc, so I am up to 4.5 ccs in there.

I was fine for 3 days, then on Friday, it was like someone pulled the rug from under me. I am STARVING!!! like the painful kind of hunger that radiates thru my back and i am never satisifed! the first 3 days, i ate my 2 ounces,and was fine, but then on Friday i was hungry so, i ate 3 ounces of protein. But, nothing. At first, i felt full after about 3 ounces but then was hungry like an hour later. and then today. OmG! I ate 2 boiled eggs and thought I was gonna die til lunch time. I am having tuna for lunch, and am almost eating the whole 4 ounces and my stomach feels like i havent eaten in a week! I dont know what to do. I am miserable.

Am i too full? Did my band break and now it is empty?

Help!!!

Unfortunately there is no way we can even make an educated guess on that. If you're worried, I would suggest calling your surgeon to make an appointment to have it checked.

Good luck

Dont have an answer for you. I can say that my doctor says 3 oz of solid protein (weighed not measured in a cup). The tuna is it a tuna steak or canned tuna? Canned tuna would be a mushie and mushies won't keep you as full as solids.

Well I'm at 6 cc's and I have some of the same problems. Just wait until you get more cc's in the band. You'll be fine. Great weight lost though.

ok, thanks everyone!

It does seem to be better this week....

Are you drinking plenty in between these meals? I still needed more restriction at 4.5cc I finally had more restriction at 5.5cc lost 17 pounds from February til May
