    Fill After Pregnacy

    My band is so different after I had my baby girl I was at 6 cc when I was pregnant with her and they had to unfill me. After having her I went back for a fill and now I'm at 8.8 with a 10 cc band and I can eat 3 oz of meat and some and still be hungry. I'm so frustrated that it not working. I hope you have better luck then me.

    Question about water...

    Ok so I drink 2 bottles of 64 oz of water but I always put in the little package of sugar free green ice tea to give my water a little flavor so it’s not too boring:blink:. My question is would that count as drink water or should I be drinking only water with nothing in it. I get a little confused:cursing: sometimes…

    Is scared to have a Stuck episode

    So yesterday I went to talk to my Dr. about what’s going on with band he asked me a few question one of the question was “could you eat a hole sandwiches in one sitting” I said yes because I can. So he said lets give you a fill it seem that you don’t have enough fluid in your band. So he gave me what he called a very aggressive fill. Said not to have anything solid till Monday when someone is in the office he would not want me to have a stuck episode during the weekend. Now I do fill like I have real restrictions even when I drink water it goes down pretty slow. I have been reading peoples stories when the have a stuck episode and to tell you the true I’m really scared to have one. What is all this about slime and PB not to sure what that means. Since I guess I have never been in this situation. What do we do when something gets stuck? Do people go to the ER? Or just try to throw up? If you guys could help me so when this does happened I could be a little prepared.

    I?m so frustrated, discouraged HELP

    So I had my surgery on Dec 8:bored: and I have only lost 16 lbs not good at all. I don’t know what to do I’m so frustrated, discouraged I have so many mixed emotions with this I don’t know what to do. I’m not going to lie I eat almost how I used to eat. I have had 4 fills my band is a 10 cc and I’m at 5.5 and I have no restrictions what so ever not even with bread. What I have been feeling is if I lay on my stomach in the middle of the night I want to throw up. To top it off this last fill that I had I feel like I’m always hungry all the time. I need some advice please help me I want to be a success like everyone on this page but I don’t’ know what to do.I’m so lost ugh I just get so upset:sneaky:. Sorry Band family but I need to vent…

    I?m so frustrated, discouraged HELP

    Thank you all for the advice.. I don't see my Dr. i see his nurse practitioner She won’t give me the fills that I need. As a matter of fact iv called her to ask if I could get a fill a few weeks after she gave me the last one and guess what she said no. I had to wait cause sometimes it takes time. I know the process is slow but not this slow???? So I called my Doctor to see if we could talk about what’s going on i have an appointment with him next week.. So lets cross our fingers that he gives me a fill. I will keep you guy's posted... lots of thanks...
