    What does restriction feel like???

    I had my first fill done under X ray but all the rest are done by the nurse in clinic now. My surgery included 2 years after care so I dont have to pay extra for my fills now but I just didnt realise it could take this long to get it right! The nurse thinks the next fill should do it and I really hope she's right! I've stopped the white bread n rice now n haven't got anything stuck for the passed couple of days, but am definatley not restricted either! This is soooo frustrating!! x
  2. Hi there, Ok, this may seem like a dumb question to you. But it's really puzzling me! I had my 1st fill a month ago, 4cc in a 14cc band......I felt nothing. Just the same as I always did no restriction what so ever! Then 6 days ago I had my 2nd fill, I now have 6cc in my band. I'm pretty sure at this point that I'm not restricted, but to be honest I'm really not sure? I dont no if it's my bad eating habits thats telling me to keep eating once I feel relatively full or whether I'm not at restriction yet? I've never vomitted (yet!) after eating more than I feel I should, but a few times I've felt like something is stuck! This feels really painful like a brick in my chest and happens mostly after I've eaten white bread or white rice or just not chewed my food enough. is this what something getting stuck feels like? Or restriction possibly?? How many cc's did you have put in your band until you felt restricted? and does the pain in the chest only happen if something is stuck?? Thanks

    5 Days to go!

    Hi, I'm Desperate Midwife, I'm 30 yrs old live in Manchester, England (U.K) with my husband and 3 children. I'm paying privately for my band and I'm having it on 16/10/10 (5 days to go!) I have been waiting for this for a long time and I'm soooo excited! I'm currently clawing my way through the pre op diet, I'm struggling a bit with this but it's not for much longer now! :laugh:
