Had a Unfill

My doc and I decided to do a little unfill. He only took out .25cc. I was at 5.5, now at 5.25 and it made a big difference. I was not losing any weight because I was afraid to eat regular food, so I was eating slider foods. I was getting stuck a lot and not able to eat until the afternoon, and then, I needed to drink something warm so I would not be so constricted. I am not nervous now to go out to eat and can eat the foods I am suppose to to lose weight. It doesn't take me an hour to try to eat a meal now. Thanks for your comments and post. You helped me to make the right decision.

Questions??

I was banded 9-09. I have only lost about 40lbs. I have not lost any weight for the past 2 months. I have not had a fill since NOV. OR Dec. I can't remember which month. I have 5.5cc. I can not eat anything until about 2pm because I am so tight in the mornings. I drink liquids until 2 or eat slider foods. after 2pm I can eat almost anything and lots of it 2,3,4 cups of soup, or whatever. If I try to eat an egg, or anything else I get stuck and start slimming and of course throw up.   When I go out to eat I get a little nervous and always get stuck and PB. I do chew slow and eat very very slow. My questions are...Do you think because I am worrying about the possibility of getting stuck an having to eat so slow (everyone is always sitting there starring a me because they are waiting on me to finish eating so we can leave.) that maybe I have constriction? I always PB when I am in that situation. Or Do you think I have stretched my stomach, or do I need a fill? I go to the doctor Friday and I don't know what to tell him. I have probably gained 2 or 3 lbs. I work out 4 to 5 days a week. May be I just over eat in the afternoons. I never feel fully satisfied or full.   I just don't know what to tell the Doc. Even before the Doc comes in the room the nurse will stick her head in the door and ask if i need a fill.   What should I tell the Doc this Friday?:rolleyes2::confused::confused:

Am I too old?

I failed to mention the main subject. My age is 58. It was my first time to create a blog and I thought my state and age would appear on the left side of the screen. Again I have appts. in 3 weeks with surgeon, phyc., and nutritionalist . I am on several medications for cholesterol, Bp, and weight 220 and 5'3. I have not read too many blogs from people in my age group, but I finally found a thread for the 50's group. That was helpful.:w00t: Thanks for responding in N.C.   Has anyone used the doctors at Baptist hospital in Winston-Salem, NC? Dr. Fuzz Fernadez?

Am i too old?

I have been to one seminar, and I have my first appointment with the surgeon in 3 weeks. I already have an appointment with the physicologist and nutritionist in 4 weeks. I have already been cleared by my ins. I have read all the blogs and it seems that everyone is between 20 and 40 yrs old. I weigh around 220 and I am pretty good condition but take some meds. Am I too old? Is there anyone out there my age that has been banded?
