I’m having a very hard time with this fill. It was OK for a while but now I think it may be too tight. I’m having trouble eating anything and even with thick fluids. I’m still finding it hard to believe that .1cc can make this much difference especially when I did need a fill. I had progressed from ½ to 2/3 C of food after my last fill to being able to eat well over a cup of solid food. Also, I was having a hard time resisting between meal snacks.

I’ve been trying to stick it out to see if it’s just temporary swelling, which it probably is, but at the same time I’d like to at least be able to eat a little food. I’ll probably call the band clinic tomorrow. I wonder if it’s possible to remove .05cc.

Yesterday…..

B – Protein iced latte

L – 100 cal pack hummus

Handful of pita chips

D - Herbal tea (everything else kept coming back up)

I had .25 cc taken out and that was the difference between drinking/eating and not being able to get anything down my throat! Had a nightmare 5 days, after 2 emercency appts my dr managed to find my port and remove quarter of a ml. I lost 9lb in 5 days and kept it all off!

B - mus milk CnC shake

L - Chix salad and hummus with endive lettuce cups

S - skinny cow fudge bar

D - 1/2 bean & cheese burrito and a few chips.

I went to the band clinic today and got a ridiculous .05cc removed. I felt foolish but they were very nice about it. I’m still tight but it’s a tolerable tight. They said to stay on liquids and mushys for a couple of days to give my pouch a rest.

B – Frozen protein latte

L – 3 nigiri sushi made with brown rice (I left a lot of the rice)

D – Broccoli and Cheese soup at Ruby Tuesdays

S – May have a protein shake if I’m up late

I had .05cc taken out today. I feel a lot better. They had to break out the special tiny needle to get that small amount out of me. She said they got the needles by mistake and didn't think they would ever use them. I told her to hold onto them for me because I'm so sensitive to fills. I'm lucky that they are so sweet there. They have never made me feel bad about coming back to have half of my fill removed which I invariably have to do no matter how small a fill I request.

b - hot cocoa with sf torani caramel syrup

s - soup at hand, broccoli

l - imitation crab

s - soup at hand, broccoli; sf pudding

d - mini meatloaf, inside of baked potato.
