I had a fill two weeks ago that took me to 7 cc. I have lost 10 lbs. However I am constantly spitting up. I have been blaming myself because I eat too much. I just tried to eat a teaspoon of cantalope and it caused esophogeal spasms. I constantly am spitting up foam. My doc said "You gripe if you eat too much, you gripe if you can't eat enough. Can you swallow?" I said yes and he said I would be fine. I don't want to cause other problems by spitting up all the time. Any suggestions? I'm ready to go have some taken out. This is a pain.

Your doctor should be disciplined!!! What a jerk. It sounds like you need a small adjustment and he is neglecting you. I wish you luck assserting yourself or finding another doctor. I just went through it for 3 weeks and got a small unfill 2 days ago and feel like I got my life back. My PA probably thinks I am nuts, but I don't care, I know what I am living. Let us know how you do.

But you will find that comforatble fill for you and then you will be fine.You will go thru some ups and downs but just take day by day and be happy and BLESSED. I've started my weight loss journey blog page and would love for some of you to join and talk with me about your band and everyday life.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
