Hi, well i'm filled up tight!! I had 2.4 put in which the dr was shocked he could get in he thought he'd get in .4 if i was lucky. So i have 11.4 in my 14ml band. Restriction is really tight i've never felt it like this before, even my soup got stuck earlier but i was starving and think i swallowed too much in one go. Just blitz down a vegetable soup but couldn't finish it..missing eating already tho i hate the liquid stage x

Mel how did you get on? x

 

[Neen]

Should settle down a bit after a day or so on liquid/mushies x

Hi all, blimey Kelly, I only had 3mls put in my previously empty band! Went ok, he said my port was at an angle so I had 2 locals and 2 needles in the port, good job I'm not needle phobic! It was interesting to see it working on the xray screen though, although the barium wasn't very nice!
I can definitely feel the difference it's made even though I'm just on liquids at the mo. I really hope it makes a difference with food as my weight loss has really stalled and I know I was eating too much. Fingers crossed for some big losses for us both! x

Great news. Be mindful of it being tooooo tight though! xxxxxx

Hope so for you Mel! Lucky you having an xray fill...I just have the budget version!!
Hopefully you won't always have port issues...
Got everything crossed for both of you xxx

Well done mel first fill over and done with, hope it lasts a while x

Thanks ladies, I love the xray totally amazing seeing my insides and band lol( i'm sad). Nice dishy dr that did my fill again.....the xray guy was quite nice too lol. I don't mind the barium..good job as i have about 7 gulps each fill. I felt the needle this time maybe as i've lost some of my padding, but only like having blood taken nothing major.
I'm hoping this fill lasts a good long while yet. As long as i sip i'm fine..just need to remember no glugging . I will see how i cope. I'm off to devon for 8 days 2moro so soup on the beach will be interesting . Hoping for a good weight loss after doing my baywatch run up the beach haha xx
