Does anyone else's band bubble when something goes thru it? It usually happens to me in the morning while I'm drinking my hot tea

I call it gurgling. It is normal. It means your band is tight. Mine is like that in the morning also. It loosens as the day goes by. Be careful swallowing solid foods when you are that tight. It could get stuck.

Mine gurgles EVERYTIME I eat or drink. I just had my first fill yesterday. 4CC in a 10 CC band. Is that an aggressive fill? I'm a bit afraid to eat as I had a bit of mashed potatoes yesterday and I had to eat it with a baby spoon and felt every tiny bit going through.

My band holds 7.5cc and when I had my first fill she took 3cc out of it before she even put anything else in to see how much was already in there... I never eat anything in the early morning... I usually rink something hot before I start eating that seems to loosen it up a bit... I have learned my lesson on eating things in the morning... And I think you are ok with the 4cc fill former... You just need to eat slow and remember to chew chew chew...

The fact is. The fill is when the real chewing has to start. Oh boy. I got used to having no liquid.< /p>

I just had my first fill and she took out 1cc and put in another, my clinic does not go agressive and that is okay with me, as long as I stick to the rules.

      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!
