Delayed Restriction?



Recommended Posts

Hi All!

I had my second fill approx 2 weeks ago. I am now at 6cc's in an 11cc band. Just wondering if it's normal for restriction to set in 2 weeks after a fill? I found with my first fill, I had restriction fairly soon after, but this time, it's almost like a delayed reaction. Is this normal?

I'm not complaining! I actually know what it feels like now for the first time and getting full on a cup of food or less is a learning curve to say the least :)

Thanks!

Lisa

I have heard lots of people say that this happens to them so yes it is normal. Not sure how this works , just another one of those weird band things.

I usually feel the most retriction 3-5 days after my fill. Then it takes me like a week to figure out how to eat so I don't get stuck, slime or pb.

This happened to me as well. Had my fill on 4/1 but didn't fee restriction until the 16th or so...and I wasn't expecting the delay so I was in pain a couple of times from eating too fast but then realized the reason. I wonder why this happens?

Very normal. My doctor won't give an additional fill for at least 2 weeks because the effect can be delayed.

Thanks everyone for your responses.. I'm glad I finally have some restriction although it has been a learning process with the chewing and hoping things won't get stuck. This band is like meeting a few friend and learning about their quirks.

      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.
