Headed in for an unfill:(



Recommended Posts

Tried to make it work, but I couldn't even make it back to the solid phase. Like even salmon or small bites of chicken. Chewing 30

Times and putting fork down for 1 minute. So then hungry and wanting junk. Hopefully this helps. I can't throw up again.

This is what your partnership with the surgeon is all about -- you two will work to get that fill just right. No throwing up, that's not okay! Let us know how you're doing. Best wishes!

Great decision. You don't want to throw up. That's not normal. Be patient you will get there.

Good call my friend! You have to make the band work with you and for you not against you. There is no "right" way if it doesn't work for you then it's not right. :) Hope your feeling great again soon!!

Thanks guys! She said she could tell I was very tight from the pressure the Fluid was pushing into her syringe. She checked band under fluoro and said everything looks great. Saw a big gas bubble from food not being able to go down! 48 hours of fluids and then hopefully I'll be able to eat again!

      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! 😞
