AHHHH what a relief...



Recommended Posts

YIPPIE had my unfill today of .5cc's and let me tell you I feel soooo much better.

The Doctor didnt want to unfill me he said that the Fluid was flowing fine thru the band (via x-ray) and that I probably just have inflammation....I was come on I cant have inflammation for 3 whole weeks... he said that after every PB and vomiting episode the stomach gets inflamed again so, if I was PB'ing and vomiting after every time I ate then yes I would have inflammation for 3 whole weeks.

I told him to take some out anyway cuz at the rate I'm at I'll never find relief... So Yippe me I am .5cc less but happier now I just need to exercise :(

That is good to hear this is what makes me so nervous about getting fills, the dr not hearing me if I tell him my band is too tight.

What is PBing? I'm trying to learn the lingo, was just banded on Tuesday.

A PB= productive burp...when you burp and food comes back out....It is different from vomiting as there is no heaving just a burp...vomiting is more traumatic for your band and that is why I needed an unfill I was vomiting after every meal not just PB'ing...

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
