I had my second fill on the 5th of this month . 2cc's

Everything was fine, liquids went down fine , semi solids seemed to be going down fine . ( My doc has a different post fill diet than most he requires 3 days clears 3 days liquids , 3 days mushies, 3 days solids) I was just about to go on solids and my mushies started to not go down very well.

Now keep in mind I am under an EXTREME amount of stress right now .

which I suspect might have something to do with my band being overly tight . Solids do not stay down now at all, I had meat loaf tonight and after about 4 bites I was done it stayed down.

So i stopped. A few hours later I tried to eat some more and it came back up. its been like this for a few days now . Its sort of hit or miss on what I can and cant eat. So im on staying on liquids now until I call my doc in the am .

Part of me wonders how much of this isnt finally having some good restrition and im not doing something right . Maybe it is good restriction , possibly being overly tight from the stress as well ???

So i dont know what to do . so im calling the doc in the AM. Anyone who's been too tight before how did you know ???

Thanks

Mindy

PS Sorry im rambling a bit

morning!

when im under stress my band is tight like right now

im worried about something and cant eat to much of anything but i know i gotta get something down!

so i started with oatmeal that was horrible now im trying spagetti *i knw i didnt spell that right lol lol *

the last fill i got about 2 months ago i had lost 9 pounds in a week i was weak and not eating at all. i went and got a unfill and i felt much better!!!

go with your gut

Thanks. I am loosing close to a pound a day right now. Im waiting for my doc to call me back right now.

I think i need an unfill. This morning I woke up and could just feel the band tight. Almost like I couldnt catch my breathe. I sometimes feel like that after I get my fills. So I am pretty sure I need an unfill if even a slight unfill .

Hey Mindy

I have found there is a VERY fine line from too tight and good restriction! Sounds to me like you need to at least visit the Dr and see if you are too tight. I have found that even .10ccs or .05ccs can make a HUGE difference for me. GO with your gut, as she said! :cool:

I think you are right. there is a very fine line .

I probably would do well with a slight unfill just a little . still waiting for doc to call back lol
