Is this normal?



Recommended Posts

As you guys know I have had to have a complete unfill. Went back he then put 1.5cc back in. I have had good restriction on some days not so good on others. But managed to lose back down to where I was before I was unfilled plus 2 more pounds. But now the last couple of days I have had major restriction I can barely eat and even when I sip Water it hurts but nothing that I can't handle just very uncomfortable. Yesterday I had 1 oz of steak and 3 bites of salad I got it down. I have tried Soups, oatmeal all of the soft and runny foods but they hurt also. I also have like heartburn. I know I am getting close to that time of the month and I am hoping once that comes maybe things will go back to normal. Has anyone else had this happen and what should I do? I go back to my doc on the 24th of this month.

I always get really tight right before my TOM. I was told it was due to some swelling during that time. I would recommend you wait and see what happens. I'm pretty sure that after your TOM, you'll feel much better.

I also noticed that I'm not as tight in the evening as opposed to morning. Maybe work your meals around when you feel a little looser.

Thanks Libra, I am hoping your right I really truly don't want another unfill at this point. My TOM's are so unpredicdable right now I guess from the weight loss that I never know when its going to happen. I am actually 3 weeks late (no way possible I am pregnant that was taken care of years ago) so I keep praying for the first time ever to get my monthy friend hahaha. What worries me most is the heartburn/indigestion thing going on. I have read alot about that being a symptom of slipage or some other kind of probloems.

I had my lap band 7 days ago. I am starved. I mushed up a few bites of mac-n-cheese. Am I going to be in trouble. I have a lot of shoulder pain. Any advice would be great!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
