ok my 1st fill i was filled to 4.2 (10cc band) and i lost 13.5 lbs...ok 2nd fill to 5.2 and OMG i've gained 7 almost 8 lbs...WHAT HAPPENED, that fill was 3 weeks ago, (i go for fill number 3 thursday) i was fine, i wasn't feeling hungry, i could go from 6 am to 9 pm and never eat, ( i did eat!) but i never felt hungry, i had lost about 7 1/2 pounds, and now i've gained that back, so now i weigh more than i did then when i went for the fill!!!

i'm so embarrassed, like i don't wanna go for my fill, its so frustrating, i mean i know where i messed up i guess...i was going to the gym 5-6 days a week, and i cut down to 3-4, and now this past week i've been REALLY hungry, i mean i try will power like i had done with past diets, but its crazy i'm really hungry...

i'm trying to talk to myself...like its not going to get any better with out a fill, so i have to go, but dang! i'm so upset!!!

anyone else going thru this? need some words of encouragement, cause all i wanna do is sit here and eat! and THAT is NOT the way to handle this

Hi,

Don't worry about your weigh in. It's a good thing you are going for another fill, sounds like you need one. They can check to see if your band lost any Fluid. This happened to me once. 3cc leaked out probably while getting the a fill. I gained 7 pounds that month and had no restriction. It's never happened since. Good luck with your next fill.

I have a 10 cc band. Had a tiny bit of restriction after my 2nd fill but not much. My 3rd fill put me at 6 cc & gave me good restriction. That was 6 weeks ago & I still have good restriction. I've lost 10 pounds in that 6 weeks but I haven't lost anything in the last couple. I think the reason is that I haven't been able to walk lately & I was walking every morning. I don't have enough daylight to walk before I have to be at work. Your 3rd fill should help a lot.

      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! 😞
