too tight or something stuck?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

2 and 1/2 weeks ago i had my second fill. since that time i have had a harder time swallowing meat even cut into tiny pieces and tender cuts of meat. If something did not go down right i would end up vomiting. This also happened with crunchy foods etc. Since sunday, i have not been able to keep down food and am on a liquid diet now as my dr. recommended, they say i may have irritated it and need to let it rest for a few days. I have been doing the liquid diet but have had a hard time. It seems like it takes a long time for a mouthfull of liquid to go down and then i belch and belch. I hope i havent done something terribly wrong and have totally messed it up. Could it be that the band has gotten tighter over the last two weeks. I never had a prob. before the second fill and have lost 55 lbs since december. Thanks

It sounds like you may me slightly too tight. I would discuss with the surgeon and consider a small unfill. Sometimes as little as 0.1 cc can make a huge difference. Please get yourseld checked out though. You want to be able to eat healthy foods.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
