1/2 way to restriction?



Recommended Posts

I ust had my second fill last wk. 4cc in a 10cm. band. My question is I am chewing my food well and it goes down and does'nt really get stuck,but I can kind of feel each bite as it will kind of hang at my band then it will slowly pass thru, no pain just basically eat one bite at a time till everything goes thru. I am wondering when I get closer to proper restriction does the food just stay at the pouch and not really go down? I do feel feel much fuller than before my feel but still feel it's still mostly willpower rather than the band helping with wt. loss.Hope I did'nt ramble on but just hoping more fill will keep things from going thru so fast.loking for feedback from people closer to their sweet spot thanks terry

I don't really feel the food going through the band unless it is stuck and I stay still when it passes... then I feel a weird sensation like it is passing through my band...

I've had 3 aggressive fills and I am very restricted right now...... I get full really quick..... I think the bit about you are just doing it on will power is right.. and AWESOME.. you are WORKING your tool! Its like that commercial with the Lion and the Kitty... the band does indeed help tame the hunger.. it makes it easier to stick to a diet

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
