Did I Over Do It?....Laura Key....12 Weeks Post Op

Did I over do it? I had a fill this past Tuesday. I now have 6cc's in my 10cc band. I was able to eat more than a cup before with 5.5cc and was not hungry between meals.

 

But now with 6cc's I can only take a few bites or a few sips of something. I am not in any pain. I am not PBing or sliming.

 

I do feel tight after a few bites. So I am eating SLOWLY and gently. I am on soft foods until this weekend but I think I may have to stay on soft foods for a few more days.

 

Literally after a few bites I am FULL. And then my throat, tummy makes all these weird noises.

 

Not sure what to think after all this. :eek:

 

________________________________

UPDATE:

It's been four days now and I am as tight as can be. I can only get 3 or 4 bites in, then I feel like I have eaten to much. I remember when I had my 2nd fill I was tight for about two weeks, then it's slowly loosened. I am going to try and get through this and if two weeks pass and I still can't get anything down, then see the doctor.:wink:

 

On a good note....I've lost the additional 2lbs so I have hit the magic 50lbs!:thumbup:

I've only had one fill so I haven't experienced any of this (at least not yet). I would still give it some time (maybe another week or so) before I rushed out to get an unfill, especially considering you aren't PBing or sliming.

Hmmm...you're right where I've started the debate (although I have to admit I've had more than a few PB's since my last fill...always my fault as I'm always in a hurry). I'll be following you as usual to see how it goes. It sounds perfect if you're not hungry after a few bites and you're not having any complications. Hope all continues to go well! -BG
