After a bumpy couple years where I had way too much PB nearly daily, repeated exams to evaluate potential problems, and blessed resolution from a Life of Slime by largish decrease in fill, I went 6 months ago for a VERY slight fill.

Produced a little benefit with only a slight uptick in Battle for Freedom from Slime. The effect on the dreaded Hunger Beasts roaming my belly at will, was mild and pleasing all in all. There is a very delicate balance between the too much/not enough point in my Band.

Now it is time to again do a slight upward adjustment. Takes most of the day to drive in to the Jaws of Hell, endure the wretched traffic, wait patiently for the pleasant PA to attend my 30 second procedure, and escape from the city again.

Back from my fill appt.

Down SEVEN pounds since last visit in January!!!!

Up 0.1cc in Symbiant, my Little Angel of the Silicon Fist....

now at 1.6 in 4.00 cc band

The most I've ever been able to tolerate was 1.7 and that left with major complications and morbid symptoms.

So cheers to me.

Now for liquids/mushies for the next 4 days.

Good to see you staying in top of it. I had a fill today, first since December. I keep mine on the loose side, but it's started being too loose. I saw surgeon las April 1 and am down 8 lbs since then. Here's to us:)

Wow Jack! Great loss! Where did you have your band done because my doctor says they don't make the 4cc band anymore. My band is a 10 and I think they go as high as 14cc?

My surgery was in 2004 when the crust of the earth was warm and dinosaurs roamed the land.

And where Jack was able to drive where the wheels stay on the ground lol Jack!

I am also ready for a teeny tiny fill.......calling tomorrow. It's been obvious, but I wanted to give it a few weeks to be sure it wasn't just me being restrictive or rewarding -- the two halves of my psyche. So happy for you -- and seven pounds, yee ha!
