:eek:Yes ME! But OH HOW MUCH BETTER I FEEL NOW!!!

 

I was afraid to get the Unfill although I secretly KNEW I NEEDED ONE! I was a little ashamed to even mention that I was having difficulty to my Dr.

 

I did not want him to think I could not keep going and or that he had put too much in, or that I would eat MORE with some of it out!

 

But I had been miserable for two months and while on my cruise, I always ate near the Ladies Rooms so I could go and upchuck half of what I ate, I was feeling so bad because I was losing all the nutrients and minerals and vitamins I needed from my foods!!!! Oh yes and I had Gained some weight not but a couple of lbs, but I had so much swelling around the band from throwing up and my body was not functioning properly so I could not LOSE any weight!

 

Well 48 hours of liquids passed and it was TIME to EAT AGAIN! I was so afraid to eat, when I did, it went down great, I felt full soon after and that was it, NO UPCHUCKING! YEAH! Wow, I am just right now back at my SWEET SPOT! I know I am going to start losing the weight again and meet my goal~so I have a renewed spirit with the band on my side again! Thanks for all your great comments! Hope all is well for you!:thumbup:

I had to have two Un fills in the course of two weeks!! I also beat myself up about it. But Boy did I feel better and free to eat more without all the side effects you mentioned. I think it is all about getting our bodies to the sweet spot and a change is so good. I was somewhat loose for about four weeks and I went back for an adjustment. I feel tighter again and I am having some gurgling. I still may be too tight. I am going to see if I can manage until my year is up on June 29 I go back for my Bandversary check.

You have done so well. Best wishes imaluckydog

Congrats on being able to eat. Do not beat yourself up about the 2 unfills. The best thing to do is to listen to your body, no one knows better then you what your body needs. Keep up the good work.

Thanks to you both, boy the mood swings stop when you can actually swallow the food and keep down the good nutrients and vitamins you get from the food! I feel good, I actually had so much more energy today and dropped 3 lbs. Thanks for the kind words of encouragement!
