Fill #4 and we might be close



Recommended Posts

I had my 4th fill on Friday, 5cc's total and tonight during dinner, for the first time, I felt that full feeling, almost at the very back at my throat........time to stop eating and enjoy the feeling. For those of you vet's, please tell me that this might be a sign that I am closer to restriction..............thanks

Sounds good. Just take time to recognise and respond to your soft stop signals and you will be fine.

I got 4cc on my first fill, I could eat a house still.

I get another one this Thurs. I can't wait, I am hoping to feel that full feeling too.

That may be a signal but that is not what you should be looking for. And, it takes time(months) to be one with the band for most of us. You should simply feel like you aren't hungry any longer. Feeling full as you describe it could mean you ate too fast, too much or failed to chew properly. food backing up in your esophogus and pouch is not good.

But yes, it does sound like restriction. Just keep listening to your band and your body. Too many overfilled episodes can lead to a dialated esophogus or pouch.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
