Hi,

I had my surgery the 2nd of Feb, tomorrow I am going for my fill....But today I felt really tight and I was eating chicken meatballs, I ate fast and felt 1 bite get stuck....

I didn't PB or slime but it hurt a little, felt like drink Water but I didn't...It felt uncomfortable for may 2min, but it felt forever...

My problem is that I am a little nervous about getting my 1st fill tomorrow, would that cause me to fell more tight???

Also the last week I have been able to eat a lot more, this week-end I ate 3 slices of pizza could have ate the 4th one but stopped my self....I have been feeling I could eat a lot more, but then this happen today...

So now I don't know if I should go and get a fill...What do you guy's think?????

I am on the lower BMI and was told that I would not have that much restriction till I get my 1st fill....

:help:

Thanks

I think if you get the fill, you'll be fine, but that you could wait and be fine as well. If you get the fill, you'll have a steeper learning curve of how slowly you need to eat and what a bandster portion size truly is (it took me a long time to really understand that). If you don't get it just yet, that's ok too. You're still adjusting to your band.

The real question I'd ask myself if I were in your shoes is -- am I losing what I (realistically) want to lose? If I still was losing, I wouldn't get the fill. If I wasn't, I'd get the fill to help me eat 1 slice of pizza instead of 3 (or, in my case, 8).

I really don't think you can go wrong. Don't worry about the fill if you decide to go for it -- fills are a snap.

Take care,
