Badly needed fill done today!



Recommended Posts

Oh goodness, well I will have been banded two years in June. I have lost over 50 lbs and have always been a slow loser but I have never gained.

Well, I started a new job in December, quit smoking in March, got Shingles in February and then have suffered ever since with severe nerve pain that has warranted Lyrica being taken each day....

I lost myself with food, I stopped weighing myself, stopped tracking my food and I also found I could eat a lot, and I mean a whole lot of food!

So, I was scared and I was embarrassed but I dragged myself to my Surgeons office. He was a bit concerned that I might have a dilated pouch so he ordered an Esophagram which I had last week. I went back to see him today and thankfully everything was fine, I just needed a fill!

I have a 10cc band, I had 5.5cc in it and today he added another 1cc. I feel good, have really nice restriction - I had forgotten what that felt like :redface:

Anyways, I just wanted to share and try to get myself back into the swing of things here on Lapbandtalk.com

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
