So today is day three of my fill

And I had carrots and yogurt and chicken salad and no stuck no sliming and no vomiting ! So I think my stomach was swollen. The first night after my fill i thought I was drooling all over the place. Dr said wait a few days since Jo fil in over a year and a half.

Are you saying you had not had a fill in 1 1.2 yrs?

Are you saying you had not had a fill in 1 1.2 yrs?

Should read 1 1/2 yrs?

I think you are going to be fine with your new fill!

Yes ! First one in over a year

I like your post because it's a good reminder that fills follow us for a life time. Newbies may expect that once they reach green that that's it. No more fills. However, weight loss, pregnancy, complications and even saline evaporation etcetc may warrant unfills and fills throughout our journey. I got a fill last May, first one in 3.5 years. I was ready to get back on track and my last fill was maintaining me at 195, my new fill maintains me at 155. Thanks for the post

I am at 153 was 241. But I am still nervous I am too tight everything stays down and nothing is conning back up !!! But I can only eat literally half of what is was eating before Tuesday ! That's why I am afraid I am too tight. But no sliming , no vomiting and I had salad today with chicken on it and ate about half then I could feel it when I burped a little then I knew it was time to stop. I am scared I guess cause I know a friend that would eat three bites and be full full and her bmd slipped !

are you feeling satisfied after eating a few bites, or are you feeling discomfort and pain? If its not pain, then I wouldn't assume that you have a slipped band.

I would disagree. Signs of slippage usually involve nausea, new onset of acid reflux, ability to eat larger portions suddenly or the opposite-difficulty eating/drinking at all, sometimes abdominal pain etc. The fact that you are asymptomatic can mean that your band is on the tighter end of your green zone. I would food journal and ensure that you are getting adequate protein/nutrition and fluids. If not, than you are too tight, simply because you can not take in minimum nutritional requirements. Sometimes a mere 0.1-0.5cc removed will keep you green but allow you to eat more and consume your minimum nutrition. I always recommend being on the loser side of green to prevent complications such as erosion, slippage etc. It's not necessary to be so tight you become symptomatic or cannot eat properly. Being day 3 you can still be inflamed, just depends on how much of a fill you added. I noticed I am much more sensitive to fills now that Im 3.5 yrs out. At 6cc I could not swallow water at 5.5 I'm at green.

Well I will keep a eye out on what I eat ! So I have no more nausea ! I only had it for a hour ! I was making my self nervous. I was able to eat a small salad with chicken today and some chicken salad and some carrots and I will have some chicken for dinner. The only weirdness I have is just a slight tightness in my chest! But I called the dr today ! They said as long as I am not bringing anything back up just see how I am untill Monday ! I think now I am a little hesitant to eat. I got really scared yesterday cause I was burping but I burp a lot since ingot the band. And just a little more salvia when eating. But other then that I have no problems. This has been my fist fill in a year .

And I have never had problems with fills ever. And I do not have any acid reflux once so ever

I had my first fill 2 days ago and I have a little tightness in my chest after I eat too. Everything goes down fine and no sliming. I hope that doesn't mean the food is sitting on top of my band! I can't imagine that's what it is because I can drink Water during this feeling just fine.

Well, since you are okay, now, can't add to much, drehn88. Just want to advise that you might want to stick to liquids following a fill for a day or two! Bets wishes to all newbies and oldbies, tooKaren

Now I can eat everything ! Today no issues at all

The oh thing I worry is during my cycle. So I going to see my dr to let her take out a 1/4 of what they put in just to be on the safe side. Cause I have not tried to eat a full plate yet with chicken and veggies. Had some lunch meat roast need today and no prob but if it is denser something may go wrong. Rather be safe then sorry
