♥LovetheNewMe♥ 1,216 Posted October 11, 2012 Sometimes I am very sensitive after a fill and it takes me almost a week before I am able to really tolerate solid foods with out feeling extremely full or Pbing a little. I have been very sensitive to the band and my fills every since I have had it, I have only had 3 fills in two years. If you can pass Water without difficulty I would give it a few days and maybe just do some Protein Shakes, yogurt and other mushy foods. You may have some swelling since it has been a while since you had a fill. Good luck, just make sure you are taking in fluids so not to get dehydrated. 2 Gwen Kinder Slone and ♕ajtexas♕ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

♕ajtexas♕ 3,771 Posted October 12, 2012 It sounds like you just need to relearn bite size and chew chew chew. I always have to relearn after a fill and it does take a while. As long as you can get Water down I would give it some time, eat smaller bites slower. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elcee 3,342 Posted October 12, 2012 If you haven't had any restriction for a while then you have probably slipped back into taking bigger bites, eating quickly etc - you probably need to relearn how to eat. 1 ♕ajtexas♕ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SashaWLS 412 Posted October 12, 2012 If you haven't had any restriction for a while then you have probably slipped back into taking bigger bites, eating quickly etc - you probably need to relearn how to eat. Elcee called it... I'm feeling just as nervous as you are. Haven't had the band as long, only 6 months, but I've been able to eat pretty much anything. But last fill I suddenly found myself throwing up more, PBing, sliming. But I think it's because I've slipped back to old habits. I'm eating too fast, not chewing enough, not thinking about what I eat... Today I got another fill because I've been hungry all the time (even though throwing up, etc) so I'm totally nervous... How the hell am I going to be able to eat? I want to eat fast. I want to eat a lot. But I got the band so I can't. Which is WHY I got the band. But it's also freaking me out a little. Good luck to you!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
