I need yalls help. Im kinda freakin out a little bit and dont know whats going on. So last night i had a rather large bite of a hot dog and small piece of bread. I made a mistake and took way to big of a bite. As im sitting there at the table its hurting to go down. So i excuse myself and go to the bathroom to "pb" it up. Since then- everything I've eaten (minus liquids) is coming back up. Like it will hurt to go down then i go to the bathroom to "get rid of it" I went to my doc last week and didn't get a fill. Ive been at 7.3 cc's for a few months and have been fine. Until now. Will this feeling pass? Will i be able to eat again? Do i need to call my doctor? They don't open till monday. Any assistance would be helpful. Im a bit nervous. Hope i didnt screw something up inside Help please!

In the beginning i was a youtube fanatic. Watching everyone's journey giving me high hopes for mine. People weighing about the same as i did in the beginning have lost nearly 70-80 lbs by now (almost 7 months post op). And i can now say I've lost almost 50. Its a size able amount but i still have 80 left. Now youtube just makes me feel discouraged and that i may be struggling or may have issues. In the past 3 months i may have lost 10 lbs. the weight loss has come to a screeching halt. Anyone else get where I'm coming from?

So i took a promotion at work and its been insane. I went from having a pretty good grip on my job and thinking it was pretty easy to working 12 hour days (14 with drive time) forgetting to eat lunch, barely eating Breakfast then stuffing my face at dinner. I havent been working out because im so tired when my days done. I work in property management- does anyone else know what i mean? Feeling a little down tonight. I havent gained but i havent lost anything in a month :/ Lost a total of 44 lbs since jan...

Blondie638 replied to Omfgmelly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Basically as soon as i woke up i was asked to wAlk around. Then do a bariatric swallow.. Then i was gone! Surgery was totally worth it! 3 months post op and nearly down 40lbs. Slower than they want but i dont care. Let me know if i can answer any questions for you. I was addicted to this app before surgery -

Youre right!!! 2 lbs isnt anything. No big deal. Im sorry about your doctor. Must have been a bad day. No worries.. Youll get back on track In the long run 2 lbs is nothing -

I messed around with my iphonography app. But my pics i don't have two chins anymore! Haha! Great feeling. Almost 40 lbs gone since pre op diet started on 1/11 and surgery 1/25! Where'd you start to first see the weight drop? I think mines in my face first then works its way down.

5.8 ccs and im not in green zone
Blondie638 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Every time i go in for a fill lately theyll say.. Your almost to the green zone! They say most people hit it between 5 and 6 ccs. But i dont even feel close? Last night i was eating dinner with friends who eats fast and after i found myself taking normal size bites and eating nearly the same speed as them. It feels like i dont even have the band? I feel bad telling my dr that i dont feel close to the green zone when everyone is telling me i should be there or almost there -
Weight loss in the first 6 weeks
Blondie638 replied to julie7374's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
During thAt time i lost 10 lbs or so, not too much, but i wasnt really concerned about it. The first couple weeks after surgery ate for healing not losing. -

Ive only lost 17 lbs since surgery on 1/25... Is this normal?

It may be scar tissue. All of my incisions have like a hard ball underneath. No big deal. U can try to massage them out..
