Hurricane and fill!



Recommended Posts

Ok I was got a fill on monday. Today is Thursday and here i am sitting waiting for Little Miss Hurricane Tropical Storm Katrina. Am I crazy or does the hurricane make me feel more restricted? My chest is so tight and i cant get anything down without tightness. My imagination or is this a possibility?

I think the weather has alot of influence on my restriction. I can hardly eat when its hot. But once the temperature cools down, I've got little restriction. I don't know that I would have needed the unfill I got if I had stayed indoors.

Bodies do change with the weather and as bandsters, I think we are more aware of those changes. Hang in there. The hurricane will pass.

Momma2mygirls: I Live In Fl Also, Where Charlie Hit Last Year. My Parents Are Still In A Fema Trailer In My Backyard. I Haven't Gotten My Band Yet, But Every Mention Of A Hurricane Makes Me Nervous. Are You On The East Coast? At Least It Won't Be As Strong As Last Year's. :)

Could be the fill from monday 'kicking in', or it could be the weather, or it could just be the STRESS from the impending hurricane. Stress really does it for me.

Is this why my band is going crazy?? I haven't had good restriction for about 1 1/2 months, and yesterday all of a sudden, I can hardly eat. My band is so tight, I can't stand it, I had gotten used to eating a tad more, actually a whole lot more. I have to go get some supplies this afternoon, I haven't been grocery shopping all week, and the refrigerator is bare, gotta go get the tuna and the Water, just in case. You know what's bad, our generator got stolen out of the back of my step-dad's truck last Sat (he borrowed it) and my husband has been so upset all week, it was brand new, worth about $4000. It is so heavy, who ever took it had plenty of help, cause two people suer can't lift it alone. Hopefully we can stay safe and not need it. Well good luck to us all. Stay in touch.

I don't know anything about hurricanes but I traveled to a really high altitude last weekend and I am alot tighter. I was thinking I may need to go in for another fill last week. But I have lost one pound in the last 3 days. That is a big thing for me because I haven't had a loss in 8 weeks.

      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!
