I’m having a very hard time with this fill. It was OK for a while but now I think it may be too tight. I’m having trouble eating anything and even with thick fluids. I’m still finding it hard to believe that .1cc can make this much difference especially when I did need a fill. I had progressed from ½ to 2/3 C of food after my last fill to being able to eat well over a cup of solid food. Also, I was having a hard time resisting between meal Snacks.

I’ve been trying to stick it out to see if it’s just temporary swelling, which it probably is, but at the same time I’d like to at least be able to eat a little food. I’ll probably call the band clinic tomorrow. I wonder if it’s possible to remove .05cc.

Yesterday…..

B – Protein iced latte

L – 100 cal pack hummus

Handful of pita chips

D - Herbal tea (everything else kept coming back up)

Today has been horrid!

L-KFC fried leg, thigh, and mashed potatoes (just shoot me now):blushing:

S-klondike bar:eek::eek:

D-Thanksgiving casserole, cranberry sauce:eek:

Obviously, I need a fill in the worst way. I am scared to get one because of my continued mouth issues with the braces. I won't be able to get food down if I can't chew it. (of course, looking at what I ate today, you would think I wasn't having trouble chewing. Go figure.)

I was able to eat regular food for dinner tonight! It wasn't much but it was solid food. :blushing:

I read a tip in this forum that suggested a small dose of children’s strength liquid ibuprofen to relieve swelling in the pouch. It worked. I know not to take it often but I don't think occasional use would hurt.

Today…..

L – Hood milk w/ chocolate protein powder

¼ C. green beans

Couple of bites of Kashi pilaf (gross!)
