Filled 2 weeks ago!

[Me1e 0]

Hi all

I had a fill 2 weeks ago & finally got proper restriction - it was brilliant but the last 2 days I have been really really tight.. I can drink Water but struggle with thick Soup let alone any solid food.

Is this normal for it to get really tight after 2 weeks of being ok? Do you think it will return to how it was before?

I am not upset, stressed or hormonal as far as i am aware! I am gutted that its got tight when it seemed to be perfect!

I have a 10cc band and I had 0.75mils put in to take me up to 8.75cc. At 7cc I had hardly any restriction.

Please help - I really dont want to pay again for another bit to be removed if it will improve.

I've had my band just over a year now and not been very sucessful with the weight loss - only lost 1.5 stone... finally I am in the right frame of mind & seeing weight come off when this happens to ruin it! arrghhhh...

thanks

Sally

well i'm gutted that no-one offered me support or advice even though 52 people read this message.

In case anyone is interested my tightness lasted for 5 days & is now back to a good restriction but where i can eat and drink small portions.

I guess it must have been hormonal or something.... but all i can say is if you get this happen it might be worth sitting it out for a few days before having Fluid removed then regretting it!

I'm glad the situation resolved itself - I was one of those that read your post, but I honestly didn't have any advice to offer. My doc told me that it can take up to 2 weeks to feel the restriction, but I haven't experienced it for myself yet. It sounds like you may actually be at your sweet spot for now. Cross your fingers and hope this is your magic fill spot!
