Does one ever get use to a fill? One day I can eat one thing and have absolutely no problem, the next week eat the very same thing (cooked by the same person, same time of day) and I'm PBing. I just don't get it. It's been 3 months since I've had my first fill (2.5cc) and just when I think I've got it all figured out.....here comes the pbing again.

Any suggestions?:omg:

Alot of variables go into how much restriction you have at a given time. I've heard some people on the site say things like altitude affects restriction, point you are in your mestrual cycle, what you've had to eat/drink previously in the day etc. I can't figure it out either. One day is good, another day is bad. I have noticed though that if I'm tight, I'm tight. In other words, don't try again later.........try again tomorrow! It is kind of like a big game sometimes, but for me, there's no arguing with the results, so I'll play the game........if you figure out what the rules are -- let me know!

You're not alone Friend!! lol! Same thing here. I've had one fill of 1.5 cc. Some days I can eat more than others, some very much less. One day I even attempted a hot roll and it was fine. A week later I took one bite and thought I was going to die! I'm pretty sure that the rules aren't written in stone...darn it! lol! Just hang in there. I keep learning new things every day!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
