  1. OK, so hopefully someone here can let me know if this is a problem or something that will go away. I just had my first fill Wed. of 2cc's (which seems like very little compared to what I was reading on here). My surgery was about 5 weeks ago. I have been having problems iwth the liquids, soft foods, and now regular stuff today. I can barely eat anything (that is the point though!) but stuff I do eat feels like it gets stuck in my chest. Even drinking stuff feels like its in my chest for a couple minutes. I have thrown up very little a couple times and feel like I have heartburn or something when I lie down which is only relieved by the constant burping!!! So, I am just wondering if this means it's too tight, or if this is normal and goes away in a couple days or something? Before I got the fill, I was able to eat a lot, had no restriction, so I find it kinda hard to believe that only 2cc's would cause all these problems? Thanks guys for any help I really need it :closedeyes:
  2. Hi everyone I am new to this site and am hoping I can get some advice. I was banded Sept 17th and at first it was great, the first 2 weeks out I lost about 5 pounds or so (didn't have an exact measurement around surgery date since their scale is off from my home one). But, these past couple weeks, NOTHING. I am scheduled for a fill on Wed. but am worried to even go in there having lost no weight since they last saw me 3 weeks ago! Is this normal to just not lose anything? I thought I would lose a good amount within the first month, but I think this whole month I have only lost 6 pounds and most of that is from the liquid diet after surgery!
  3. Ok, thanks!!! I was just really worried that its been a month and I have only lost a little bit most of which was lost immediately after surgery. Plus I was looking around on here and seeing some people who have already lost 30 pounds only 5 weeks post op!
  4. Oh forgot to add, that I am right back to being hungry a lot. It just makes no sense to me I think I am really doing something wrong :confused:
