Had 1/3 cup of mashed potatoes with gravy. Ate slowly. I am stuck and sliming. So painful...seriously over mashed potatoes?? God, what's Thanksgiving going to be like? I think I need to go in on Monday for a slight unfill. If I feel like this over mashed potatoes what would solid food be like. Ugh. Sliming seems to be over now. 15 minutes of hell. UGH.
Note to bandsters that are just starting to get fills. A small fill goes a long way. I went from pretty okay restriction to possibly too tight with a .5 cc fill.

I am so sorry to hear that you are too tight, gotta get that taken care of on Monday! Question for you, do you ever get esophogeal spasms? I seem to be having them all the time since my fill.
ReplyDeleteAww damn.. it's a fine line between trying to find the good fill and bad. I hope that resolves. Just hang on in there - it might loosen up some, I know it did in a BIG way for me. xx
ReplyDeletelol my word verification came up as gravitty (gravy?? hmmm)
ReplyDeleteOnce I had restriction, potatoes were no longer an option for me. Nor were scrambled eggs. Both were foods that I had previously been able to eat. I hope you aren't too tight, but maybe its just because potatoes are so starchy(think glue). Good luck.. It really is a balancing act finding the perfect level of fill so you can eat, but not get stuck.
ReplyDeleteI've been fighting my too tight band for more than 10 days...didn't want an unfill...still want the weight loss. But I did try to set up an appt for my next adjustment and got Dec 16. I guess if I stress that it's hurting and probably too tight, I could get the unfill sooner. Water was hurting, for heaven's sake. I did get some mashed taters in tonight and there is NO hunger for me. I'll keep you posted. Good luck to you, it really sucks to be sooo tight that it hurts.
ReplyDeleteOuch! That sounds painful. I am going to take your words of wisdom to heart and be careful when I get to the stage of having fills. Hope things are resolved for you soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you too for following my blog. I'll do my best to keep it entertaining :-)
You have actually done really well to get to this point and level of fill with no PB's and only sliming, but it does sound like you might be slightly to full....
ReplyDeleteI on the other hand desperately needs a fill, can eat most stuff with no problems and eat far to much....13 days to go before my fill...
Man that sux! I hope they get you in soon to get it fixed so you can actually eat something.
ReplyDeleteI think I may be there too. I got .3cc fill and I am still on mushies but it took me about an hour to eat a can of tuna last night. Good luck getting in and out of the drs office today if you do go for an unfill
