Weather changes - Tight this Morning



Recommended Posts

Rain, Sleet, Snow and cold weather......

They say your band gets tighter with weather/barometric changes....

I am having the toughest time getting my morning smoothie in....been over 30 minutes and not finished yet...one time I had to stand over the sink thinking it was coming back up....

Between you and me...I LOVE IT!

This will pass, always does, usually as the day goes on, BUT it is assuring the band is still there functioning....I would be more alarmed if I felt nothing!

I learn to adjust and deal with it......

I have the same barometric pressure sensitive band as you I guess!

Hope the snow and sleet don't keep you from having a great day!

Weather changes wreak havoc with all of me. The weather in NC has been up and down (from the 70's to the 40's) this last week. My sinus pressure is intense and the drainage seems to be messing with my band. Not feeling much like eating anything, just drinking alot.

In Australia it's summer ATM and I find when it gets into the high 30's and it's humid my band tightens, I'd say its because of Water retention with the heat. Tomorrow is a day of 39c here in melbourne so it will feel like an instant fill by mid afternoon, but I'm not complaining, will always cherish my band no matter how finicky it is.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
