    Too tight?

    thank you so much! And you are right it's very much a learning experience. I like your idea of the 36-48 hrs after a fill. I'm sure our Tummys are mad at us being poked all the time

    good advice thanks a million! Thinking about trying fish as my first solid Thursday. It can't come room enough

    Too tight?

    I was instructed by my dr to eat soft food for 2 days since I just had my unfil last evening. I'm moving to solid foods Thursday. That will be the true test. I'm hoping it won't be a problem

    One month banded and my port flipped

    My situation was just like yours. Went in for my first fill and after 10 min of him poking around sent for an X-ray to confirm flipped port. That was on a Friday and Monday was in surgery to fix it. It's disappointing for sure I'm sorry you have to go through it

    Well today for lunch are 1/4 cup of mashed potatoes and 3 bites of applesauce and I'm full. Green zone maybe???

    I'm hoping I don't go back to being hungry because I was before I went from 4-6. I was so miserable not being able to eat with 6, maybe 5 is my lucky number

    Thanks a million!! It may be early but chili went down this am no problem. I'm kinda in a pickle as I don't know if that counts cause it's kinda mushy even with ground beef. I may just wait a day or two before having an unfil. Thanks for all the advice! Great to be in a place with all this knowledge

    I will try to eat this morning and see. Seems odd I was able to eat the other day. Thanks for all the input

    I'm about 5 months out. And I've had shrimp lots of times before this last fill with no problems. Maybe it's just the fill and now I can't handle it. I called the dr and they advised liquids for rest of the weekend and call Monday for a slight unfill as I tried to eat again and for sick

    Thanks for the advice!! I'm scared to eat any food that isn't mushy at this point. I'll give it another day and then if it's still happening I'll call my dr

    And I've lost 4 lbs since Tuesday. Happy about that but sure don't want all the complications that come with a band that's too tight

    Too tight?

    So I went in for my 3rd fill this passed Tuesday and the dr put in 2 ccs to give me a total of 6. I did my liquids that day, mushies on Wednesday now on to Thursday. I started with yogurt and that was fine, lunch I did mashed sweet potatoes and for dinner I tried some chili. I didn't get stuck but felt like it was very very close. So I did the same yesterday. And even saltines made me feel like I was going to PB. Today I tried to eat a salad and grilled shrimp ( I'm taking 3 SMALL shrimp)for lunch and up it came. Water goes down no problem. So I'm wondering is my body still adjusting to the fill or should I have some removed?
