Any Words of Wisdom???



Recommended Posts

Three weeks ago (Thursday) I went in to have a fill (.2 cc) and 4 days later I had to have an un-fill because I could barely get down Water, Thursday and Friday I was fine...Saturday and sunday is another story. The PA took out the full .2 cc and told me that I more than likely did not need a fill in the first place....which was untrue. I know I am eating way too much food and I am getting hungry in-between meals.

I go back to the fill center on 10/24. Ouestion: Are they going to hassle me when I tell them I need a fill? I have not lost any weight since the un-fill...:smile2:

I guess I am getting down because I have lost a lot of weight before in the past (127 lbs with WW) and it scares the hell out of me that I will do it again. :thumbup: I need some words of wisdom, inspiration something...I knowthis is lame compared to some peoples issues but I need help.

Honestly? Looking at your stats, you're losing well. I was told the average is 1-2 pounds a week and you've got that beat. OF course you'll get hungry between meals...that's what "normal" people do! :smile2: Then when it's time they eat again. If the .2 cc's made you so tight you couldn't keep Water down, then I'd guess you're good. Are you following the rules about not drinking before, during, and after meals? Are you eating enough Protein? I'd be ecstatic to post the losses you have so maybe that's clouding my judgment but from where I sit you are doing wonderfully. How soon after you eat do you get hungry? Are you sure it's really hunger and not "head" hunger?

Just some things to consider. Don't let your fear cloud today. You're really doing very well.

If you still think you need a fill, then IMHO you're the customer. You are paying for it; they shouldn't tell you no.

      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.

        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.

      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!
