go back and get a little out, it wont take much, sounds like you got a little too much. It happened to me and he took a tiny bit out and it was perfect.

My doc makes me drink a cup of Water after a fill before I leave the office. Did you have to do this? Sounds like you're too tight.

I had a fill today also... I had to have a complete unfill at my last appt due to being way to tight at 5.5 cc... Today she put 5cc back In and had me drink Water .. My throat started gurgling really bad and felt the pressure if that water just sitting there.. Dr said 5.5 was to much so she took out .5 cc's before I left an it seems to be perfect .. So now I have 4.5cc's in my band :) ... Def go and get some taken out.. Dr said if its happening now it won't get better later.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
