Happy Friday ! To get a fill or not to get a fill ??? It seems I cant eat muchless keep anything down due to the fact I have gallons of drainage. It only gets worse if I try and eat, the food gets stuck and well it starts working it way upward and BAM I spew. I do sip hot tea and my beloved coffee but it doesnt solve it..yes I ve done the Mucinex all chopped up before bedtime, Zyrtec, Clartin anything to rid the snot so I can eat. PLUS I am getting a fill tomorrow...Any Suggestions Good People Of The LapBand World ?

Ever watch Nemo ? Well seems these days I am Bruce The Shark! WOW I am hungry these days, or head hunger ? Who knows I hate it and I want to be done with it. I taste a tiny bit of this and that and nothing curves it. Yes I have 10cc band with 4 1/2cc's and it does hold me for a few days but just not enough. Banded on April 13th and I have dropped 27 pounds but for as hunger pains I should be butt bone skinny.... right ? I needed to vent and I thank you all for being here listening to my sissy girl stuff. Indoor

I have a 10cc band and have 4 1/2 cc's and after I get a fill I am great for a few days then suddenly " Bruce the Shark" rears her ugly head ! I HATE this it annoys me..I got for my 4th fill June 30th and I hope and pray I too hit that Sweet Spot ! Congrats to all of us for taking this HUGE step and the massive weight loss !!!

Its aggrivating as ever ! I have a 10cc band and have 4 1/2 cc's and after I get a fill I am great for a few days then suddenly " Bruce the Shark" rears her ugly head ! I HATE this it annoys me..I got for my 4th fill June 30th and I hope and pray I too hit that Sweet Spot ! Congrats to all of us for taking this HUGE step and the massive weight loss !!!

Ohh yes I am venting ! 3 weeks post op and my gut is screaming bloody murder. Its yelps before I eat, during and after. It roars while I walk..Its nerve racking to NOT be hungry and the damn thing is screaming and rolling. Please tell me Band People of the World it will STOP ! :thumbdown:

AWESOME! I think you are doing a smoking job ! Congrats !! I only hope I loose 100lbs as fast as you .

Ohhh No Pain at all ! I feel great..I just want the darm thing to stop barking at me is all.. lol ! Thanks ladies ! By the way no way on earth would I drink anything with carbonation...Which is funny I was guzzlin liters of coke daily back in the day .

I dont think that was a bad cheat. :thumbdown: It's not like you went out and shoveled several dozen Big Mac's down ya throat. Just last night I had a Skinny Cow Ice Cream Cone..and actually I just ate the ice cream off the top and gave the rest to my 14 yr old. I personally think if we deprived ourselves we might go into some kind of Super Pig Out phase to where we make ourselves sick. I am 3 weeks Post Op and amazed you can handle crackers they make feel like I am gonna choke. I think you are doing GREAT ! :blushing:

WOW ! I am 16 days post-op and May 15th is my first fill. And does my gut feel like its chewing on my back bone ?? Heck Yes ! No matter how much water I guzzle it still roars.. I HATE this ! So I had to start snacking in between meals with stuff loaded with protien and it does help. I do hope when I get my first fill I can stop snacking. Best of luck to all of us !

I am right at 14 days post-op today. I have lost 16lbs, I do feel great. HOWEVER I have no restriction, that will not happen till May 15th. My question is " Do yall feel lite snacking in between meals is ok " ? Let me give you an example of what I am snacking on Light Mozz. cheese stick, Sugar Free Motts applesauce, low fat yogart or even Breakstones Low Fat single serving of Lite cottage cheese. Of course not all of these at the sametime and at times I dont even finish my snack because I get that satisfied feeling. So please bend my ear and lemme know what yall think. Thanks ! :scared2:

Thank you both very much !

I get those to and DANG they are ANNOYING as ever ! I sip my water or broth and I have even done a chore to get it off my mind...It is stressful ! Ohh yeah today I have been banded a week !!!
