Sudden restriction before first fill?



Recommended Posts

Hello Fellow lap banders :Banane03:

So, I was banded June 16th, I was just commenting yesterday about my band how I can eat constantly, always hungry, no restriction etc. ...Well, I let myself get extremely hungry yesterday (stupid I know) and I had the worst case of a growling stomach, ever since then I have had a lot of restriction which I have not had since the band.

And today for the first time I had "sliming" ick!

Has anyone else had something similiar? sudden restriction before your first fill? (Having my fill Tuesday July 22nd) :)

I didn't slim but I know yesterday I waited too long to eat and when i did I felt like an over stuffed cow and it was painful so I had to lay down for like 3 hours before it subsided. I even went to bed without eating and this monring running late I didn't even grab anything to eat at all and here it is noon already and am not leaving from work till 1:45 not a very good schedule here, I did have some Peanut Butter and crackers but let's just say I needed an egg or something not that crap! I am stuck here at work till then too :) UGH!!! I feel ya though!

you might have eaten to fast cause you were so hungry and so now your stomach is irrated. Or its in your head and you are just afraid of the fill who knows. I know i have lots of problems in my head with my band.

Thank you to both you for your replies :)

Acutally I can't wait for my fill on Tuesday that is for sure. I am pretty comfortable with the condition of my mental state and old habits, but thank you for the reminder.

Perhaps I ate something that is just irritating (as you suggested) or just got stuck, I will ask my surgeon about it if it is not feeling better.

Take care both of you and Cheers!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
