WTG Robin! That's great!

Well, I got my fill. Turns out my port has flipped on it's side, but with a bunch of maneuvering, the doc was able to get it turned right so I could get the fill. He added another 2 cc, so I'm up to 4 cc in an 11 cc band. I hope this one works! I'm going to need to get my port fixed, so I'll probably be getting that done in the next couple weeks. I'm just glad my insurance is going to cover the revision!

Well today I got my first fill. I have been banded almost 3 months with no fill. I wasnt actually planning on him letting me get a fill today I was just gonna ask about it. But he said since I've gone longer than most without any fill at all he would do it. So I was a little nervous but it was a breeze no pain at all the only word I could think of to describe it was "weird". It just felt weird to me I could feel my band getting tighter. I have an 11cc band and he put in 3cc's to start. Well I'm back to liquids for a couple days but I'm so happy that I should start losing again. I had a Protein Shake and it took longer to drink than its been taking so I'm taking that as a sign that I'm tighter.:clap2: We'll see.

Go girl. Say goodbye to the 300s!

Congrads Robin! I just had my 2nd fill and had two days of liquids (my own decision) because I have been between 301 and 303 for a month. I wanted to give myself a kick and hope that I become a Twoterville. Well, I did it. I am now 298!!! I'm staying on mushies for a couple of more days so I can get further away from 300. I never want to see that number again.

I don't know if I have restriction yet but it does feel different when I swallow. So I hope I do.

Diane

I'm so happy to hear about the victories from you guys. So far fill #2 has been fine for me. No issues today and eating pretty small portions.

Pebbles, you are so beautiful! Your skin is amazing!

ladydi and rlittman -- way to go sisters!!

Am I crazy or are we missing posts from 11/1 and 11/2? I could swear there were some posts about eating Halloween candy, and I think I posted about vomiting everyday. Did anyone else notice this or is my brain starved.

Something odd happened. I couldn't get on for two days, and then, as you said, it seems some posts are missing. Weird.

Speaking of the thread....it's November! Shall we start a new thread? I'll do it...okay so everyone go to the ABC November Chat thread....NOW!!!! LOL!:D

      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! 😞
