Recommended Posts

Ok, I was banded in 10/08 have pretty much always been able to feel restriction I currently have 7.? cc in a 10 cc band and over the last 3 days I feel NO resrtiction. I can eat what ever I want and am always hungry.

This comes just after being so tight some days I could barley eat. My last fill was on 4/6.

What's going on here??? Anyone else experience this? Please HELP!!!!

I'm scheduled for another fill on 6/1. Looks like we are pretty much on the same track as far as amount lost and time frame. Thanks for your quick reply.

YOU know that never clicked I was wondering why people would get loose after having restriction. IT makes so much more sense now :thumbup:

Well that makes me feel a little better. I thought the darn thing might have popped off some how. ha ha

It just scares me a little when I can't feel it.

Might call your doctor... for this experience to be so sudden and drastic. Of course if you have lost a bunch of weight since your last fill then that could also explain the loosening.

However, the reason I say this is because I have heard that erosion can be painless and cause people to feel little or no restriction.

That's probably not it, but better to be safe then sorry!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
