I was having trouble swallowing some foods that are soft/dry. It felt stuck in my upper throat, like literally behind my tongue. I asked my doc to do my first fill under flouroscopy and he did this was wonderful for me! He put 7 cc in and saw it wasn't going through the band, so he took .5 cc out, and says that should be good. I felt great after my appt, knowing my swallowing issues are not from a slipped or wrong band, but just my own bad eating habits. I only lost 3.5 lbs in the past month and a half pathetic, but I know its because I had no restriction and I honestly found myself giving in to cookies, fried food. Issues I have with food run deep...every time I leave my house, I think about all the food I should go get. I gave up soda, but wow....that addiction is awful! I am glad I gave it up, but not a day goes by that I dont want one so bad! It was really neat seeing my stomach and throat on flouroscopy, I feel lucky my surgeon listens to me & cares about my requests. Dr. Coon of victorville/riverside is the best!!

Lucky you. Most of us have to wing it with a half dozen fills. Keep up the good work
