Not the same since my unfill...

[unbroken40 31]

Feeling defeated... I had an unfill due to a stomach bacteria. Prior to that I was in the green zone, steadily losing weight and almost out of the 200's. Now I can't get back in the zone and I am very frustrated. Three fills and I am hungry still after meals. I want to scream!!!!

This was my experience, too. I wonder why this happens? I'm currently at a fill level that was, long ago, just fine for me, but now I no longer can go as long between meals. I won't take another fill because I'm having other issues that I believe are band-related and I don't want it any tighter was it would cause the other issue to become worse.

That said, I've still got restriction (thankfully), just having to do more "dieting" than I used to do to see the scale move. Still, it's a whole lot easier than when I didn't have the band.

I really think the doctors should study why, once unfilled, it is difficult to get back to the green zone, even when re-filled.

That's disappointing. Do you think that if you tried a liquids diet for awhile it could reset your tightness? Just a thought. Good luck.

I'm having a lot of stomach problems like dull aching and Constipation. I think I'll have saline taken out to see if it improves. Could be ulcers. Anyone else have similar problems?
