Fill Follies & Sweet Spot Wonders



Recommended Posts

I went in for my 6th fill on Wednesday. Only got .5cc. That brought me to almost 6cc in a 10cc band. Anywho, I got home and, after driving an hour, could not swallow my own saliva. Sigh.....I had been down this road once before. I waited until today to see if it would get better and it did not. I promptly called my doc who had me drive the hour back for a .2cc unfill which did wonders. I can now swallow but still have fantastic restriction. I am wondering if this tiny fill means that I have finally found my first sweet spot.

Any ideas?

I have been down the too tight road for 4 months. I finally got a 1cc unfill yesterday. As my Dr. says this is not an exact science. If you find yourself on a diet of ice cream and hot chocolate its time for an adjustment. Don't wait as long as I did. I'm suprised I did'nt gain all my weight back.

I have not been gaining. Steady loss here. I was too tight for two months and just sort of stalled. This time it was about 26 hours. I am good now. When I am too tight, I take the healthy food I should be eating normal and blend it in the Bullet. I think that is what held off the weight gain.

I am almost to the 60 lb mark! I need to hit it soon!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
