Hi i had my 3rd fill on saturday, I now have 6ml in a 10 ml band and what a difference it has made.

On sat i just had some soup after my fill, yesterday i had some soup and then tried cottage pie, i could only eat about 3 spoonfulls, and then thought i was going to Pb but did manage to keep it down.

Today i have only managed 1 spoon full og Oats so simple and then pb it back up (discusting)
I thought porridge would be ok. I am meant to be eating normal foods from today but am a bit nervous about it, I thought i might try a crisb bread.

The other thing i have noticed is that I seem to be making gurgling sounds all the time, even with just a drink, other people can hear the sound, and i feel like i want to burb all the time.

Do you all think that this will settle down in a few days and sorry for the horrible details
 
Hi

After a fill I have to stay on fluids for 3 days then sloppy for 3. Back on normal food on day 7. I know each provider is different but it might be worth sticking to liquds / sloppies a bit longer. Getting stressed will tighten your band too, so when you are trying something, take your time and try not to get worked up.

Good luck x
 
can u drink fluids freely? sounds like your tight but may be post fill swelling if u can drink ok give it a few more days to settle then decid if it the kind of restriction u like
 
Hi thanks for your replies

yes i can drink but slower than normal and i hear/feel this gurgling sound which is ok i suppose and everyone else can hear it, to them it sounds like i am starving hungry lol. I think I,ll stick with soup for a few days.

I havent lost much weight since i had the band last july so I,m not moaning and I am looking forward to seeing some lb's coming off
 
stick to liquids for a couple more days, if your vomiting on liquids still or even from a mouth ful of solid food then id say your band is a little tight and a small de fill could make a difference, if things dont settle in a few days please contact your providor explaining your situation as constant vomitting will put your band at risk x
