Hi freckles, hope you ok honey!!

Hya chick, hope you're good too. I could have sworn I replied to this a few days ago:unsure:

I seem to have acid in my chest all the time, so I have resorted to a teaspoon full of vinegar, but the next morning it starts again :w00t:

Cant wait to get my de-fill, 3 weeks today:thumbup:

Meant to say Jane , whom I met in Belgium told me she has whey Protein every day and it fills her up no end, and you know you're getting complete protein without all the calories.

The first day, I struggled taking it with semi-skimmed milk, even though you only have 200/250 mls, to a scoop. It didnt want to go down, then I had stomach pains all afternoon, then needed the loo later on. (Sorry to be explicit):blushing:

The next day (yesterday) I mixed it with cold Water and was much better.

So I'm going to keep on with this and see if my weight drops, Jane told me her mum takes it (not banded) and her skin is filling out nicely, hoping this will happen to me, cos I have so much loose skin, everywhere, cos of my age probably.

Will let you know how I go.

Welcome to the newbies and excellent forward planning, booking your op Sara. Llama when are you booked for your op hunny?

Laila My first fill was 6 weeks after surgery as my doc was away on holiday, then I had another 4 fills before I started to lose properly, that was July 2009 when I was over-filled, and brought me up to 6.5 mls in my band which holds between 9 and 12mls.

I had a de-fill in October of 3mls, due to the fact that I was going away for 3 weeks and doing 10 flights. We travelled a bit lol.

I then went for another fill in December 2009 which took me back up to 5.75 because freddie boy said he didnt want me to be over-filled again.

This wasnt tight enough and by may I had gained over 8lbs so he put in another 0.25, bringing me up to 6mls.

Then i had another 0.25 put in, at the same visit cos I got the Water down ok, and I had asked to be back up to 6.5 and freddie told me to try the water after the fill and if I got it down then he would put the other 0.25 in.

Are you bored yet????

I had another 0.5 put in a month later, then had to have it taken out again because of the acid reflux.

In July of this year I had 0.25 back in, bringing me back to 6.5mls and now next month I am getting 3 taken out again, cos I feel quite run down and cant eat much and taking in fluids is harder still.

If WLS had had a clinic in manchester when I started my fills I could have saved a mint, but alas they didnt.

Acutally freddi was very good and gave me 3 free fills cos we couldnt get it right, which was really good of him, bless.

I hope you can make head or tail of it hunny.

Thanx for asking about my daughter Slinx, she says she's only lost a pound, cos she is eating more than she used to eat before, she was on a constant diet.

She's not disheartened though cos she knows when she starts her fills she will lose weight.

We are both going to manchester on 9th December.

Help!

Doing this on my mobile so short message. Anyone know where next fill clinic is / what's best to do for emergency de-fill? Don't know what's gone wrong but I can't even get Water down and constant reflux. So tired and sore, need it sorted ASAP. Any advice? x

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
