Guest guest Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 You poor thing. Mel you need to have a serious talk with your surgeon - this just isn't right. I know we all have different levels of our restriction but for you to be so tight you can only get liquids down. I know that different doctors say different things as well, that after a fill go onto fluids/mushies until things settle. It's weird because my doc says straight to solids, do not pass go, do not collect $200 and I've never had a prob. I usually have food waiting for me once I leave his office!!! For some reason this band isn't working for you and it's time to check out why. Maybe you aren't eating enough, have you tried keeping a count of your calories to see if there are ones slipping in that shouldn't be. Perhaps you cannot tolerate some foods and this is mucking up your system. Either way it's not good and you must be so frustrated and upset by all this. Please promise you will ask your guy to help you, do whatever tests and check it all out. You didn't cough up all that money and put your body through hell to be miserable. I hope you can get it sorted. I'm very worried for you. Cheers Cherie > > > > > > Mel > > > > The sweet spot is so individual, for me the sweet spot is no food > > desire, but if necessary I can eat.
