Not Tight In Am, Anyone Else?



Recommended Posts

I have about 3cc or just under in 10cc band. Banded 1/18/12 and doing well. Haven't had a fill in 2 months and I'm happy with weight loss and feeling of satisfaction between small meals. Lately I've noticed that I don't "feel" my band at all, not in the morning, not at night, nada. I've read so much about so much on here, I see that "loss of restriction" could be erosion or leak... Am I just a worrywart? Can anyone else relate to this?

It could be that you have lost fat around your stomach so the band is looser. I would recommend going to see your doctor.

I would think it's more likely that you need a fill again. I have never had restriction in the mornings, but I don't think I have hit my green zone yet. I am losing weight - total of 34 since June 22nd, so I am still happy with it. My doctor did say that as I loose weight I lose weight inside around my stomach so the "belt" has to be tightened.

I would call and go in, if they do you fills with floro then they will know for sure.

Thank you for the responses. I see the doc next week, and will tell him. I'm hoping it's the weather or something. I reallydon't want another fill yet, but I thought everyone felt morning band tightness and I certainly don't, now anyway.

I just had .25cc removed wed. Had fill last week and it made me too tight. I was vomiting in my sleep and miserable. Was still able to eat but was still horrid at night. I feel better. Still have a tight feeling in my chest but dr said my tummy swollen so take a few days to go down. But there is a big difference a lil unfill will make.

      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.
