replaced band and gaining weight! !

[MamaMama 3]

I had a slipped band replaced 2 months ago. Had 4CC put in. No restriction. Gained 2 lbs. Added 2 CC. Started throwing up took out 1 CC. I'm starving! So disappointed with myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please help me!

Disappointed in yourself? Why? You're in a difficult time right now, trying to find the correct adjustment to your band. Frustrated, sure. Uncomfortable and hungry, yes. But don't be hard on yourself. Keep going for your fills and hang on. I'm not speaking from experience, because I've just received my first fill this week, but I've been told it can be several visits and adjustments to get to the greeen zone. Be kind to yourself and stay connected here. We're all in this together. Good luck.

MamaMama...like justwatchme said please don't get upset with yourself. I am almost 4 mths out and have only had 2 fills so far 3rd is scheduled for next week...I only have 3 ccs in now and have no restrictions and am hungry most of the time too. but I am forcing myself to eat only what is on my plate (they gave me a plate when I got my 2nd fill). still my weight is coming off really slow (am unable to exercise yet) so that isn't helping either. so please don't give up on it yet MamaMama even though this is the 2nd time around. try to be alittle bit more patient with your band and hopefully this time will be the charm...I sure am going to keep you in my thoughts!!! this is a new way of life and I know that I am not always honest with myself with what I am eating...so I am going to get back on track and hoping that I get some of this weight off that is what I paid for...we are all in this together so hang in there sweetie!!!

I have had the same problem since my band revision 2 years ago. Just hang in there. Right now, until you reach green you will feel like you are on a diet, again! Best wishes.
