3rd fill....got questions



Recommended Posts

I got my 3rd fill and they said last time I got filled to 1.7 and this time I only had 1.0 in my band. I thought this was really wierd I lost .7 and got worried but they told me it happens sometimes. They only filled me back up to 1.5 seems I cant pass the Water test? I cant feel the water going down or stoping...so they said if I can eat alot to come back and they would try again. This kinda sucks cause my wife is losing like 12-17 pounds in 45 days and I lost 4! :cry and men should lose faster...

A lot of people say that some of the fill gets absorbed into the body naturally. Or you could have a leak, or they could be wrong about the amount in your band. If you were at 1.7 and fine, it seems fishy that at 1.5 you can't swallow Water. I think I would go back and find out whats going on.

Well I failed the Water test and couldnt tell if water was sitting or passing through, they even tightened and said I should feel it now and I felt nothing? the water always seems to go down and never stops?

      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.
