Too tight?



Recommended Posts

How do I know it's too tight or if it's just swelling? Because normally my recovery time varies.

I've never had an entire CC put into my band at once, it's usually only a 1/4 or 1/2 but the nurse and I agreed that I wanted to be more aggressive because I am stuck at my weight and still too hungry. Well, Water goes down fine but then yesterday (day after fill) I could only have two bites of applesauce and some green tea and sugar free popsicles. Today, I tried solids (stuuupid)- some cheese- and now even tea comes up. I've vomited so many times since my fill because the first day I kept trying things like milk and stuff and the second day because I ate too much applesauce.

I don't know if it's because the band is too tight or if it's because I've been vomiting so much that I'm just swollen. I'm sticking to Water for the rest of the day, to see if that helps, but I'm wondering if it just comes down to the band being too tight.

Advice?

I am sorry you are suffering, I have been there many times. Since tomorrow is Friday please call the office if you aren't any better. What started out as mild swelling has turned into major swelling from barfing so much. Try to rest your tummy for tonight and start out with a popsicle then warm tea by the spponful in the morning.

Best wishes,

Mimi

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
