Fill after 18 months- UGH

Well, I completely forgot why I had a complete unfill over a year ago. Today, I remember why. I cant eat! I hate that I cant eat. I can barely keep down my Vitamin Water. I guess this could just be that my stomach isn't used to this and is swollen but im hungry. I tried to have some soup - nope. crackers - nope, chips - nope. I know.. i know, i should be eating healthier food but I cant keep anything down. Now I found a Protein drink in one of the vending machines and it seems to be working, except I keep getting hiccups.
Is my band too full? It only has 3cc out of 11. Any suggestions on what to do? What to eat? Should I go and have some removed or wait to see if the restriction goes down?

My doctor was charging $100 a fill and then $50... I stopped going for fills because of this and gained all of the weight back that I lost. 230lbs down to 180lbs and now im back to 230lbs.
The fills are free now, so I can go back whenever.

I have 2 weddings next year Maid of Honor for both. I NEED to lose this weight.

Just had my first one in 13 months. Good luck! Remember you have done it once, you can do it again! I wish my fills were free!
