band no 2 fill no 2

[serenitylove]

Hi Liz
Hope you dont mind me asking how is the weight loss going, i know the restriction is a problem at the moment
Can I also ask when you have a fill do you have to go throug the mushy and puree and lumpy food stages ?
Also are all bands the same size ? yours is 7ml but I am sure ihave seen someones description say 15ml.
How do they decided what size of band for each person ?
sorry 101 questions
x

i have a 14ml band currently have 7.75 mls in it i think i had a big stomach lol i only stay on liquids the day of a fill and back to normal next day but as liz said every clinic different

I go for my second fill on Monday...I have never known what size band I have, so I am going to ask.

I have managed to shift over 3 kg since last fill, it doesm't sound much in 3 months...

i had fill no2 today, my last fill was 3.5 mil which was half full, she drew back 3 mil in the needle under xray so ive lost 0.5 of a mil, shes upped me to 4 mils in my 7 mil band, and omg im tight ! But hey i like it and this is what i need to kick start me again, i was full after half a tin of tomato soup, ive not been this tight since i had 5 mil in my old 7 mil band.
ive experienced this level of restriction b4 and i know what to expect and how to use it to my benefit, as i know ill prob naturally lose half a mil again over the next 3 months so it will loosen off again.
so fingeres crossed i can start loosing again, the dietcian said id lost 9llbs since the last weigh in on her scales, so im quite happy after todays journey.

glad you got the restriction you wanted from fill im due my next one next month cant wait whats the difference beween restriction you had and now if that makes sense i cant eat certain foods and if i do i end up hurling but i still dont feel fully restricted im now worried i might be and not know it! and go you well done on the weightloss

whats the difference beween restriction you had and now if that makes sense

hi serenity,
the restriction i had b4 my 2nd fill was that i couldnt eat breads or rice ect, but the healthy meals i could eat, i could eat a bigger portion than i should of been able to.
the restriction level i now have is great as i can still eat these healthy meals but the extra fill has given me "portion control" and i can now be satisfied from a childs portion.

Really glad to hear your loving your band again. I hope it works really well for you now. xx

Lizzie thats good news about your restriction, it amazes me how a little bit of water can have such an affect...I wonder how they ever came up with the idea in the first place.....aint science grand...xx
