Please can anyone let me know the signs of a band over fill? I had on 48 hours ago and am struggling. I've had 5 fills before but this seems especially tight.

Are you throwing up a lot? Can u swallow your saliva? Not eating enough? If you think your too tight, you probably are. Call the doc for an unfill.

Yep, thrown up about 6 times since yesterday morning. I get a mouthful of phlegmy mucus that I can't seem to swallow (I try to spit it out as much as poss but I'm a teacher so it's not always convenient). Since yesterday morning I've only eaten a cupa Soup and half a small bag of cheesey air type chips (in the Uk we call them Quavers -that melt into nothing) I tried some hot Water last night but threw that up about 2 hours later as it was still there!

Yup, sounds like you have been overfilled. Call you doc for maybe a slight unfill. Thats a really uncomfortable feeling. Dont wait.

I have had too large of a fill for about 4 weeks now. I can't get hardly anything except junk down-which I've been resisting. I've thrown up almost every day since my fill 4/14 and have been waiting for it to go away. Although it has some (was able to eat salad last night) I do NOT want to worry what will or won't go down, it HURTS!!!

I'm getting my unfill today, I wouldn't try to "wait it out" like I did

      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...

      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.
