Am I too tight? Or give it time?

I got filled on Friday and I've done 48 hours of liquids. It took me a long time to get my protein shake down this morning, but it was ok. Tried introducing some mushies today. Didn't go so well. I had five small bites of greek yogurt. All of the sudden, major slime, chest pain, then threw up the yogurt. Should I give it some time? Or get unfilled a little. Am definitely going to call the surgeon tomorrow, but thought I'd see if this is normal after a fill with good restriction.

Update...I went to see the surgeon today. Since liquids are going down OK and aren't gurgling anymore, he said I had two options. 1) Do liquids until Friday and see how I do, then introduce mushies again. He is there all day Friday if I need to be seen 2) Get the .5CC taken out.

I chose to do liquids because he said as I lose weight it will get less tight. He said to just keep an eye on my urine that it doesn't get dark and to make sure I stay hydrated.

Ok i forgot to ask why are you watching for dark urine???? Is that a sign of being dehydrated?

Yes if we do not get enough liquids to flush the toxins from our system our urine will get really dark.Just to update my fill from Friday is tons better today so I feel you will be fine if you just give it a little more time.It always takes about a week for me after a fill for the swelling to go down and I can see where I am gonna be.

Thank you! I am already feeling a little better. I can get some mushies down and liquids don't gurgle now. It is great having restriction now!
