Anyone else have this issue?



Recommended Posts

So I'm about 5 weeks into my lapband journey and I'm very pleased but one thing that bothers me is this:

Most days I have restriction and good restriction.....and then out of the blue for 1 to 2 days I feel like I have absolutely none! I'm hungry all day, I can eat anything (well maybe not as much before the band! but too much!!!!) And at least for now it goes back to restriction!

Today is a "NO RESTRICTION" day! :o

Just wondering if anyone else has this occur?

That was me up until my last fill. It was very frustrating to never how eating would go each day. I can't explain it, but when I got my last fill that all went away and now I'm pretty consistent in my restriction.

Remember that Fluid shifts in your body can also affect the tightness of your band. I notice a lot of difference during my period and if I haven't had enough Water to drink over a few days.

Hang in there!

I am over 2 yrs out and have great restriction but on average of once a week I will be able to eat things that I normally cant, and feel hungry all day.

I will panic and wonder if I need a fill or if it is the beginning symptoms of a slipped band and wahlah the next day I will have restriction again.

I decided about a yr ago if I was going to have another fill for lack of restriction I would wait at least 2 weeks to make sure its an actual fill I need and not just my band being fickle.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
