Not healthy, but loving it....

So over a week ago I had a fill and every since I'm not able to keep stuff down. I'll throw it up milk, water each and everything. But within 7 days I've lost 11 lbs. Went from 250lbs to 239.8lbs I know it isnt healthy but I haven't been in the 230's in over 6 1/2 yrs. I won't be able to go to the doctor until nxt Tuesday 4/15/2014 .

    this is more than unhealthy...it's dangerous. is the doctor aware you cannot keep any food or liquids down? you can become dehydrated and go into organ failure. really. no joke here. call the doc

  • I can completely understand that desire with the results of losing weight but yeah it's definitely not something to toy with. Especially if you can't even keep liquids down. Are you doing super smal

They can remove fluid from band atvthe ER.? I'll try thst route instead waiting another week

I can completely understand that desire with the results of losing weight but yeah it's definitely not something to toy with. Especially if you can't even keep liquids down. Are you doing super small sips?

Definitely try to get in to see your doctor as soon as possible. Did you tell them that you can't keep liquids down? Is there a NP on site that can help with an unfill? Not from personal experience, but from what I've read, it'll be hit or miss if the ER will have a knowledgeable doctor that will know how to unfill. Google and look up signs for dehydration. The ER can definitely help with that at least.

I know you love this magical quick weight loss but go see your doc asap!!

If you can't get into your doctor definitely go to ER. My hey are fully equipped to handle your situation

Hoping you get into your doctor or EC soon...I'm new at this but it doesn't sound good that you can't eat or drink!!! Let us know how you are doing!!!
