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.

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.

      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! 😞
