O.K. I went for my last fill a month ago and got 1 cc for a total of 4 in my 10cc band....The next day it was all good,but the following night I keep frothing which is what I call the slimy stuff I bring up when something is stuck...Well it lasted all night to the point of me waking up choking and while I didn't know it I was 2 tight and choking on my own spit...I had heard of this happening so I went for 1/2 cc unfill whcih helped immediately....I think he took more than 1/2 cc out cuz it feels like it did b-4 my fill....Well now I don't know what to do cuz I am eating too much but am scared of being 2 tight....If was 2 tight before shouldn't I be at my sweet spot now????? I never want to feel loike that again but yet I want to start losing again....I am betwween 25 and 30 lb. loss.... Let me know what yalls;s experience has been....

I had a simulary situation. Onmy third fill it was to tight so I had most of it taken out, since then it's been strange. I have good days and bad days with my eating, but I seem to be consistantly loosing. Once you have lost enough weight to make the band to loose you will be ready for a tightening, If you think you need a fill just get a small one. Even though I have lost 12lbs since my last appointment I still don't need a fill since I have restriction. I go to see my doctor in another month and I am still not sure I will need a fill then. Keep positive, and you will get there.

I hear ya - just when I think maybe I am able to eat too much food...then I have another day where I don't want to eat hardly anything....so as long as I am still loosing the doc said not to worry about coming back for a fill. (which is fine by me as it costs me a co pay every time I walk thru his doors) I hate the sliming, tho...it happens to me once in awhile, too.
