Hi everyone, so I had an unfill last Thursday because I could barely keep anything down that i was eatkng. Now i realize I might not jave been used to having to chew and take small bites. Well anyways, they took out 1/4 cc. Now I feel like I have zero restriction and have gained two pounds. I have an app this Monday for a fill and I'm trying to decide if I should get The 1/4cc put back in. Any thoughts?

I think you should leave that decision up to your surgeon.

If you had to have .25cc removed then getting that same amount put back in would likely be a mistake. If you have another fill, I would try a smaller amount, like even .1cc

The green zone is a tiptoe in my band. Chewing and slow eating is necessary when I feel I am in the green zone. Also drinking within an hour or less of eating for me is a problem . Slow and steady. Your Dr. will be the best to help you find what works.

When I had my first unfill she took out .4 which was the amount of my previous fill. I went back 2 weeks later and she gave me .25 and was fine after that.

Talk with your doc and decide together what is right.

      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! 😞
