I Like You Was Banded Last Year In Oct. And Have Only Lost 55#, I Have Restricition A Lot In The Am, But Can Eat A Good Bit In The Evening. I Have Been Debating On Getting Another Fill But I Am Scared It Will Be Too Much. At This Point, I Cant Eat Anything In The Am Until About 10 Or So. Are You Glad You Got Your Last Fill? 4cc Band With 2.5cc In It.

NICE TO KNOW OTHER PEOPLE FROM AL WORD TO WISE, DONT GIVE UP, KEEP A POSITIVE ATTITUDE AND TRUST IN THE LORD HE WILL PROVIDE:clap2:

:help: I was banded 10/05 and I have lost 55#, which is ok but I really feel like I should have lost more. I have a 4cc band and 2.5 cc's in it, I have restriction, but I am not sure I have enough. The problem is that I am scared to get any more fills because I am afraid it will be too tight. I can't eat anything in the am until about lunch time, then I can usually eat a whole plate of food with minor restriction, but I am diabetic and my sugar bottoms out at night and I have to get up and eat or drink and usually end up purging because it will not go down, and I am unable to throw up. What should I do?
-
My doctor always scheduled me when he thought I needed a fill but everybody is different, if you dont feel restriction after a 2-4 weeks I would say to try more, until you know you are tight, just dont get so tight that you are purging alot because this can cause slippage. Take it slow and dont get anxious, it will work.

If you are getting choked at night that sounds like reflux, probably too tight, however try to sleep proped up on pillows and dont eat anything after 6pm.
