Sounds like you are too tight. I'd ask to move up your appointment.

I've heard a lot of people having a tough time in the morning, and that warm liquids can help "relax" the band opening.

I never had a tough time until I got another fill on Monday. I'm back up to my regular diet today and it feels like Breakfast is sitting in my throat. I don't think I'm over-filled, I'm eating my portions fine without feeling overly full, but I think I need to move breakfast to a little later in the day.

Always best to pass it by your surgeon though.

Hello KImj384,

How long has it been since your last fill and how long after it did you start feeling this way? I am sitting here in the exact same place as you, after my last fill 2 weeks ago I was so happy that I was finally in the green zone for the 1st time since my surgery over a year ago,but in the last few days it seems that it has tightened a bit, at least in the mornings, I have ordered some Unjury to add to coffee in the mornings (even tho I am not a coffee drinker) it has really great reviews and with the warming effect I think it will make lunch time a little more pleasant, from what I have read is that the band loosens as you lose weight, for me going for an unfill seems redundant especially since they only added ¼ of a CC . I’m going to try and tough this one out, but I will be keeping a close eye on this topic, hope things get easier for you. Thank you for posting!

Hello thanks for replying! I had a fill jun 4 and have been having stuck episodes ever since so I've been sticking to nothing but slider foods and Soups I can barely get aanything else down and I'm just getting sick of it it's so exhausting!!! I would rather not eat at all because I'm scared I would have to throw it back. So I stick to what I know will go down and sometimes my slider foods don't want to go down easy! I would rather get some takin out instead of living day to day wondering if I will be able to eat anything!!! I barely even drink during the day because I'm battling my food for hours. I'm miserable. I have went from 189 to 173 but it's by not eating and I have 0 energy to work out it's been 2 months since I worked out.

I completely understand, I think you are probley doing the right thing, please keep us updated, I might be right behind you lol
