  1. My starting weight was 389. I am down to 329 as of my last appointment. After surgery and my first fill I had no restriction and was hungry within about 2 hours. I went into my second fill and asked for as much as possible. Now I am barely hungry at about 5 hours.

    Micaela only .5cc's at your second fill does not seem like much, I have heard that usually half of the first fill is attempted at your second fill if you are hungry. After your fill did you feel tightness for a few days and does your doctor use fluroscopy?


  2. So with the fill you are able to almost eat 1 cup of food? What has your Dr. told you to eat?

    My Dr's dietitian are telling me not to eat more than 2 ounces at each meal' date=' which I think is insane.[/quote']

    I am able to almost eat one cup depending on what it is. I am not able to eat bread at all without getting stuck and lunch meat bothers me a little as well. I was told my my dietitian to measure out 1 cup of food and eat what I can and if I am hungry before my next meal finish what I was unable to finish at meal time (if it is something that can be reheated). 2 ounces of food is not enough unless you are less than 6 weeks post op.
