Question about an unfill

May 29th I had a total unfill due to a small slip. I was banded Dec 2006. This is the first issue I've had with my band, so I was wondering... Shouldnt I feel hungry? Ive actually lost 3 lbs since the unfill. Does this mean it hasnt corrected itself yet? I'm just worried because I've seen so many people talk about the hunger with an unfill.

  • Your weight loss could be just loss of fluids. Regardless of your band, fat loss is still just calories in, calories burned. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth and accept that you're a better info

Your weight loss could be just loss of fluids. Regardless of your band, fat loss is still just calories in, calories burned. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth and accept that you're a better informed and more disciplined eating machine. Something we all strive to be someday. Congrats!

You are probably losing now because you are eating properly which you could not do when you your slip. You should be fine. Just watch your self control while you wait your 1 month for it to go back into place. Best wishes to your losses. Karen

Youre right Im totally fixated on eating EXACTLY how i should be. I have a 2 month wait to see if its corrected itself due to the fact that my surgeon is in another state & i have to fly back for my check-up. I guess in my mind I hoped that if I was able to get back on track and lose some of the weight i regained, that itd give me an even better chance of correcting itself. :)
