I am 1.5 years out. Down 65 lbs am at goal. Last fill was in May. Everything was going fine until about a week ago. I started throwing everything up. Had the most horrid reflux all night with regurgitating and coughing. I called the doctor that of course,on vacation so another dr took out 2.5cc. Feel much better, no reflux,coughing or regurgitation. Also have NO restriction. It's such a weird feeling. I am seeing my dr on Tuesday. I am hoping to have a fill. I don't want to gain! Anyone else ever have this happen?

not like you describe

could you identify exactly 'what' that essential difference is that 'no restriction' equals overeating?

I'm in the hopes that the real restriction is in my brain-controlled eating behavior which I'm striving to train to voice command. The leash/training collar of my Band continues to remind me of 'good eating behavior' even when partially unfilled....but that may be artifact from having an antique 4cc band, where every .1cc makes huge difference.

I'm just trying to identify whether it would be my own 'anxiety' about overeating, or whether a really loose band would somehow propel me into overeating. I hope by now I've picked up at least a few good habits.
