I had a fill ....



Recommended Posts

I went back to my Drs today and told him I went off my reflux tablets and the reflux has all but gone. He weighed me and I am up another kg since last week...he decided I needed a fill based on me being able to eat bread and I couldnt before...wierd I know.

Anyway he put in half a mil and I now have 10.1 mls in a 10 ml band...scary thought. I really hope I get the rest of my weight off with this fill. My fills usually take a week or so to kick in so I will have to wait and see. Thanks for all the advice and suggestions in my previous post.

Hi - I'm new to this board, and just saw Anwyn's message. I also had a band slip (December) and had it repositioned. I have a 4cc band, and am currently at 1.7cc's which is actually more than I tolerated with my original surgery. My new surgeon figures I was living with a slip for about 4-5 months. So I too am slowly getting back into the swing of things. I lost 50 lbs from the first surgery. Then I gained back 12 lbs. Now I've lost 8 of those. So I'm nearing my original weight loss. I need to get off my duff and exercise. I was much better at doing that before. Good luck!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
