Supplements = loss of restriction???

I just recently started back on my supplements.... I take Omega 3 fatty acids, pomegranite juice, L-Carnatine, and I drink Green Tea now. Of course I have been taking my multivitamin.

Since I started on the supplements I have pretty much lost all restriction....I know that they have have anti-inflammatory properties and I really think that the supplements caused the restriction loss, so I was wondering if anyone else has had the same experience.

I noticed that I now am able to eat double the portions that I could when I felt the restriction. That is scary!

I am going in tomorrow to have a fill done. I am curious if I lost any of my existing fill amount.

Well let us know what you find out at your appt.

I am very curious to the things that make my restriction ease or evaporate.

We'll see.

Well... All of my previous fill was in there. We discussed the supplements having an effect on stoma swelling due to the anti-inflammatory properties, and he said that he does think that it contributed to my loss of restriction (as well as the fact that I had lost more weight).

He got a little too aggressive with the fill, though.... He put me at 3.2cc's on Tuesday, and I couldn't swallow spit so I had to go back yesterday for a .7cc unfill. Man it is really bad to get too tight!

I am still suffering a little, so hopefully the swelling will ease when I can take my supplements again! At least so far I am able to keep the clear liquids down.
