Thinking~You said you were afraid to get a fill. Why? because you haven't lost weight in awhile? outit77

Hi Genise! This is a great sight for info. Look around in the forum & ask questions. Everyone is very helpful. :-)

Hi Blue. I'm at the point where I can eat just about anything especially if I eat slow enough. I think some banders like there band tight & some don't. I believe mine is pretty lose....I like it that way. I like to eat whole wheat bread if I want to. I'm in a good place right now not too tight W/ good restriction. I have not had i fill in a while & when I do get them I get VERY small fills only if I am hungry a lot. As, Tiny said we are all different. :-)

the spot where you say you have the weird feeling is the spot that hurts when I get something STUCK. I would do liquids for a few days like you said. Maybe something is swollen & you need to just do liquid for a few. You REALLY need to talk to your surgens office about somebody seeing you a new doc. HTH. :-)

just bumping this up for you. maybe someone else can help.

I have not experienced this but I do worry about it A LOT. How long have you had your band? I'm so scared about permenent damage to my stomach now that I have been banded for almost 2 yrs.

This is great!! I'm in for 10 ish! I'm 171 now & wanna get to 161 by moms day!! get on that tredmill!!!!! woooo whoooo~~!!!! We're goin down!!!! :-)

Thats great JAY!!! Goo for you! :Banane20:

First I had to go into see my surgen because she thinks I pulled a stitch! I was having port pain. After a few days it felt like how it felt right after sugery (that bad)/ So, had a CT scan done. Apparently, a scan doesn't show if you pulled a stitch. She just wanted to make sure everything was "working still going through right ect. She thinks I did pull a stitch & is hoping it will heal itself. So, it's been about 10 days & my belly is feeling better. NOW, I'm having back issues!!!! :mad: It first felt like Siatica pain. It's horrible!! I can't bend iver pick up my kids do house work excerise ANYTHING!! I'm really bumbed out! I have been eating all the wrong foods! I was doing so well too. :frown:

well, my port is still a bit sore but feels a lot better. I couldn't take the Siatic pain anymore & finally went to my chiroprator. I see her again today. :-) I am able to eat anything I want as well but I am not hungry. Just gotta make my mind up that I will eat the RIGHT foods. Tova~I hope you heal up totally very soon so you can get your fill!
