Back up a month...a month apparently from tomorrow. I started my (.). Next day, went for a fill. Decided against having a fill because I am typically tight during my (.). They said come back in two weeks, they had no appointments. My appointment was scheduled for tomorrow...GUESS WHAT I GOT TODAY???
So, I have been okay with restriction but have been able to eat much more than usual and different types of food than usual (e.g., pasta) with no problems. Definitely need a little tweak. Now I'm afraid that if I get a little tweak tomorrow I'll be overfilled because of my (.). UGH UGH UGH!
I think what I've decided is that I'll get a little tweak (.1 or .2). Be on liquids. My (.) typically lasts three days, so if I'm feeling tight it will leave by the end of the week. Since today is day one, I'll base this on how tight I'm feeling today. If feeling too restricted, I'll reschedule the appointment. So so very annoying!

Oh no! Good luck! <3
ReplyDeleteYikes.. I am with you on doing the liquids through the (.) stage.. and then getting a good ride out of the fill.. talk about juggling things.. hang in there!!
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny. I'm just wondering that when you say you feel tight, does that mean when you are eating you feel the tightness or do you feel tight even when you're not eating? I currently have no fill, I'm two weeks out, and barely start soft food today.(been on shakes for two weeks!)
ReplyDeleteIt's a man's world, Jenny. Blah.
ReplyDeleteI think your plan is a good one, I'd go for the tweak.
Ugh, that blows...
ReplyDeleteI think you have a good idea of waht to do.. definitely go in for the tweak and just take it easy and all will be well!!
I am with you on tweaking! My fill was postponed until Wed and I pray that my (.) holds off another week. I really can't judge yet if it makes my band tighter or not as I've only had one fill.
ReplyDeleteThis was happening to me too...and then they came early....so I seem to be in a better appt cycle for now. Go with the little tweak because you have been looking forward to it. Good luck
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan and I wish you luck. Right now I consider both "fill" and "restriction" curse words.
ReplyDeleteI would probably tweak. It cant really hurt. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteOh that sucks. I had my (.) last weekend was sooo tight - liquids and mushies only. As long as you're mentally prepared for liquids for a few days I would get a little tweak.
ReplyDeleteI say do the tiny tweak and see how it goes!
