Funky Third Fill



Recommended Posts

Wow! This third fill has been a doosy. I still only have under 3ccs in an 11 cc band. I only got .75cc on this third fill. Since last Wednesday, I have kept down 3 chicken wings. I can do warm and hot liquids but normal food would come right back up.

This evening, I did, finally, get down a few tortilla chips with a four layer high Protein low fat dip. LOTS of normal burps (the food is going down kind of burps) but no PB. Thank the Lord!!!!

I was fixing to call the doc in the morning to go in for a slight unfill.

I have more trouble with fills than anyone I know and I only get small ones. What is the deal?

I eat right. I chew well. I eat slow. I don't eat crap that is bad for me.

This whole week, I have been supplementing with Protein Water and Protein shakes but only AFTER things won't stay down. Soooooo weird.

sorry to hear that you've had such a hard time with this. I frequently get food stuck when eating - especially chicken - but tortilla chips go down great for me. I haven't had enough restriction yet, so my weight isn't coming off so well, but I'm hoping after today's fill that starts to pick up. I hope your body learns to adapt. One thing that bothered me was the no drinking rule. I found that that caused me to get stuck more often, so now I will sip a bit of Water during a meal to keep things moving. Good luck.

      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.

      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!
