OMG Im scared and freakin out...

[Krystal 4]

I had a fill in April and now a month later May 8th I had another fill. He only put a small amount in.

Heres my problem.... I did the liquids thing and mushies and all that fun stuff.......today I had some Pasta...i was thinking...this will get stuck but i just eat a small amount...well it never got stuck.......so i ended eating more than i should have.

Then i was giving my daughter a SOMOAS GS Cookie and I ate FIVE of them(i know i shouldnt have).......and i had NO restriction....WEIRD.....

So i was thinking just now how odd it was not to have any restriction...and its making me really nervous. I thought...well im going to test myself...i did the ultimate....i ate 2 pieces of bread dry by themselves......no drinking or anything

NO RESTRICTION......i have 6.8cc's in a 10cc band....and im nervous as hell.......did my band slip? what has happened...

I havn't had ANY restriction since the Dr added to my band.

I may not have eaton good today but thats not my problem...it was mainly tests to see if there was ANY restriction...

Any ideas? What this could be?:cry

Never fear. It sounds like you have the larger band. It often takes several fills to find your 'sweet spot'. I hate to do it, but it's been said ' just because you can, doesn't mean you should'. lol Patience my dear, you'll get there.

I understand that....but even before this fill i wasnt THAT UNrestricted....its like he took some out, not put some in....thats why im freakin out

You probably just don't have enough fill yet. I know of about 5 people who had virtually no restriction until being over 9ccs, but then - watch out - .1 cc was the difference between too tight and too loose.

Also, being able to eat those foods isn't a sure sign. I can eat everything you mentioned, and I have moderate restriction.

If you're looser now then before your last fill - well, lots of things could be playing. Maybe the fat around your esophagus has shrunk? That's just one of the poss.

I can eat Cookies all day long, but give me a chicken breast and I can be stuffed for hours.

I really hope you guys are right. I am faced daily with the possibility of something going wrong. Maybe being able to eat all the wrong foods today has scared me. I have been really good in the past month but eating those foods and it not doing anything scares me.

I need another fill......but my Dr makes me wait 4 weeks inbetween....grrrr

[Iluvharleys 15]

Sounds to me like you just need more fill. I have to say though that my fill tightens after a few weeks, so be careful not to get a fill too fast.

Krystal,

i had very little restriction until my 4th fill that brought me up to 9cc's in a VG band.

you will be ok.

my suggestion is DONT eat the garbage food. eat chicken if you can, beef, veggies, get your Protein and veggies in before anything else.

you can do this! i have faith in you and the band working together.

I don't know anything about fills yet, but I have been finding out.. like someone else mentioned, I could eat a whole box of cheese crackers.. but if I eat chicken breast, 2 bites and I'm done. So try eating something healthy and see if you're restricted.. not the junk stuff. Junk seems to go down better, that's a concensus I've heard and now believe!
