I was banded in Dec, lost 48 up until April or so and then only 5 pounds over the next 1 1/2 months so, I went in for a fill last Tues. As always, my surgeon is fairly aggressive so I got .5 cc. Now I have lost 1.5 (!!) pounds a day (!!) since Tuesday. So, 7.5 since Tuesday! Should I call the doctor. I can keep some food down, can drink smoothies and nuts and am exploring what else I can eat. I am comfortable but eating very little.

Since you are able to drink well and eat some things I think you have time to wait and see if your band fill relaxes a bit. If you start having reflux or start barfing and can't hold liquids down call your surgeon. Best wishes.
