Eating too much

[hopeful60 1]

Does anyone ever feel like some days you can hardly eat anything and then other days you can eat much more? I have been feeling very restricted and since lunch time today I feel like I can eat anything. I am scared that something happened to my band. Anyone else ever have this?

Bands can be fickle and none one can explain the reason why. I have read many posts saying the same thing you have said and it happens to me that way, too.

Best wishes,

Mimi

Hi, I'm one week out from being banded and finding the same thing. Mid day a 1/2 cp of cream strained Soup feels like a gallon bubble in my chest, the next time, feels like I could eat 2 cups! Having the same worries but seems to be common, so gonna try to trust the band and relax. hang in there!

:confused::confused:I have been banded on Feb 22 2010 and feel the same way it makes me crazy I will lose on my good days and other days I can eat or feel hungry all day . I'm eating much healthier and exercising . I hope when I get my first fill it will help me out more .

I feel exactly the same. Most days I do good but lately I have been feeling hungry. I was banded on March 5th, I guess it's time to get my first fill.

Has anyone got a fill before the 6 weeks? Does it hurt a lot?

Thanks.

I was also banded March 5th and had my first fill March 31st and a second one scheduled for April 20th. Its not the "best" feeling ordeal, but its bearable...

I ate pretty much anything I wanted 2 weeks after surgery, felt absolutely no restriction and after my 1st fill of 4cc's still feel very little restriction.. Im hoping it will get better after the next one.... Good luck.

I have my first fill next Tuesday and I want to go in there ready to ask for some serious restriction because I have been banded for 3 weeks and sometimes I feel very restricted after 1/2 cup of Protein, but most of the time, I could eat another 1/2 cup easy. Soooo, this band thing is very confusing. Sometimes I get stuck and I've even did the slimming thing ( not fun) and sometimes I can eat with no prob ( as long as I chew chew chew)....but foods that have no substance even get stuck, for example mandarin orange slices that I was feeding to my 16month old got stuck, LOL....this is a learning game and I have to say it keeps the day interesting, lol.... :thumbup:

Wow! Was your port site healed by the time you had your fill? I was banded 3/20/10 and am ready for a fill but my port site is still pretty sore so that has me a bit apprehensive.
