tighter with the weather?



Recommended Posts

Ok...so I've been a bandster since 2008...overall lost 147lbs. I've had 3 fills since then with my last at the end of march this year. I currently have 5.7cc in a 10cc band. After my last fill I could hardly keep anything down for two weeks..I thought I should go for an unfill but I usually swell up pretty bad so I decided to wait it out. It got better..but would still get "tighter" when I was stressed..etc. Lately its been very hot..like almost 100 degree temps..and I've been finding that I am superrr tight where I can barely get any liquids down. Has anyone else experienced this?

I am 17 days banded and I am having a hard time with liquids in general. Since its been super hot I have been wanting to drink Water like I had before I was banded. this sipping stuff sucks but my doctor and lbf just said just keep sipping slow.

Frustrating when you want to just down an entire bottke of water! Thats always been the hardest thing for me...the sipping

yes, I have been trying to get a video or ask someone to show me how they sip their Water and be satisfied. I always have been a water drinker and have been known to down a gallon of water in a day. Now I feel like I am going to be sipping for hours until I am not thirsty anymore. This heat doesnt help, its 98 today.

      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! 😞
