i get to the point that i can eat to much, get a small fill and it snaps shut. I could get .1cc or 1 cc and i have the same result...very very swollen. Has been this way since day 1

so, every time I get a fill, I ended up getting unfilled. According to my doc I am very very sensitive. My band snaps shut! I had a fill 8 days ago, a small one. I felt my band tighten and made him take some out immediately. For 3 days I could eat a tiny tiny bit. For 2 days nothing, not even liquids would stay down. Loosened up and could eat (even steak) for 2 days. Yesterday super tight, ate a piece of cheese for Breakfast, then could not even keep liquids down, finally at midnight I was able to eat a bit of food and drink a Vitamin Water. Today everything is coming up, I drink, I have spasms and up it comes. I'm in pain, I'm miserable. Does this happen to anyone else? FYI since June I'm down from 231-185......good loss but not enough to live like this. I am in pain!

I am stuck between 189-194. I keep bouncing back and forth these 5 lbs... yesterday I tried on a size 11 and....they buttoned! I can comfortably wear a 13-14 if it's not juniours size. I wear a 14 skinny jeans with some waist room to spare. but size 11, ohhh it's been a while!

had a fill on Monday WAY to tight first 2 days were ok, liquids only. Then BAM! yesterday and today can't even sip Water. Gets stuck and I have to hark it up. So I made an appt for a small unfill, will i feel immediate relief....or will i still feel swollen?

Very tight in the morning and early afternoon. By lunch I can eat Soup or a mushier food. By dinner I can eat a horse...... NOT losing any weight..... dont know what to do really

i have UHC as well. I was originally denied after waiting the full 30 days. The dr office appeal and i was approved in days. Bizarre but i'm well and banded now....dont give up!

So last Monday I got a whopper of a second fil (2.5cc) in addition to my first fill of 3 ccs. I was tight! did the liquids then mushies. Then started getting horribly stuck on EVERYTHING. I figured I was too tight. Waited a week. As of Tuesday, I was still stuck and pb'ing on things. S I pt myself back on liquids.... Did liquids most of yesterday. Attempted to eat a normal dinner and surprise surprise. I could eat even very soft meat. I had made an appt to get a little fill taken out, but maybe now I should just stay here. I'm eating small meals and not feeling hungry. I think maybe I was swollen from being stuck and pb'ing.... is this a normal learning curve? or should I cancel my appt....unsure of what to do. And my doc is not in until tomorrow afternoon when my appt was scheduled....

blaze you are surely high tonight! :puke: I quit for a month, was doing great....then I relapsed the other day....

Got my first fill Monday. 3cc. Wasn't really hungry before. Did my 2 liquid dys. Eating soft food today. I noticed, i'M HUNGRIER now than before fill. Is this mental? what do you think?

blaze, that's rough......

I have chief in my work title

I'm with Jachut on this one. Men like Vince Vaughn , Jason Segal and Seth Rogan are very appealing. They have a goofy self confidence. But I too couldn't do a 400 lbs man, not appealing to me.
