Well, I need an unfill. Yep, there's too much in my band. I was sooooooo miserable at dinner tonight it wasn't even funny.
I got through lunch just fine. It took me a little longer to eat, but it's supposed to and I thought ok, this is good. I had 2 oz. of shrimp and 2 oz. of watermelon and a light string cheese. So all in all almost 5 oz. worth of food.
At dinner my family had hot dogs, I had a Hillshire Farm Turkey Polska Kielbasa. It has like 100 calories, 4.5g of fat and 10g of protein, pretty good. Tastes pretty good too. About halfway through I should have stopped eating. I should have known better, but did I listen to my band? Nope! Even took a few bites of the squash I had on the side.
Bad idea. Because I spent the next hour to hour and a half miserable. Saying things like stupid band. Like its my band's fault. Sigh.
I also have had, what I'm guessing is one of my mini-migraines (haven't had one in a while), going on my 3rd day now.
Ok I'm done complaining. Sorry to vent. Carry on.
Do you think you need an unfill or should you have stopped eating?
ReplyDeleteI feel like a freak really...I have 6.5ccs in my 11cc band and I still don't really have a lot of "restriction"...at least, I very rarely feel the "this isn't going down" feeling and I've never PB'ed (knock on wood!) I'm really curious how you know where to draw the line!
No, I definitely think I need an unfill. I ate MAYBE 2 oz. of protein and was MISERABLE. It's not supposed to be that way. I'll never make it through my day to get enough calories or protein if I can't eat.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason I should have stopped was because of the uncomfortable. My portion size was good, the restriction is too much I think for this early in the game. Later on, probably not, but for now it is.
Chelle, I appreciate you being my blogging buddy :)
It is pretty recent since your fill. Shrimp and sausage are not entirely band friendly. At least for me they aren't. Maybe give the band a break with some more friendly foods?
ReplyDeleteUltimately you need to be comfortable with your restriction level... so if you feel it isn't right... then an unfill sounds like a good plan.
