Everyday...and lately it's ticking me off! I haven't seen a loss in 10 days...very discouraging since I eat around 1100 calories a day (never more than 1200) and exercise 3 days a week. Come on, scale....MOVE!!!
I was told that the port has titanium in it which can set off metal detectors. I carry a card from the manufacturer that explains that I have a sugical implant.
I haven't had a problem with cole slaw or broccoli slaw--which I eat a few times a week.
Maybe it is the change in meds...that's been known to mess with a tummy. Hope you feel better soon!
I have a 14cc band. My first fill was 6cc...second fill 0.5cc, and today at the third fill I got 1.5cc...so I'm more than half filled now.
My fills are done laying down, no flouro, numbing shot fist.
Best wishes!
I felt swollen after my first fill--4 days ago. I got 6cc in a 14cc band. I was swollen for 2 days. I was told liquids for 24 hours, mushies for 24, then solids after that. I feel less hungry in between meals ( was VERY hungry prior to fill) and am eating less. Don't think I'm at the sweet spot just yet but I'm happier than before!
My surgeon told me that at TTOM if your hands and feet swell then so does the lining of your stomach. So, it is linked and you can feel much tighter during, well you know. Good luck!
