I’ve just had a gastric balloon 6 days ago and although the first day was horribly uncomfortable - the following days got better. I’m pretty lucky as I only had nausea for the first day and as the days went by - no nausea and the discomfort got less and less and I was able to start drinking more water and began eating very soft foods (eggs) by the fourth day. I only had nausea on the first day, after that it was more so uncomfortable having such a full stomach. I’ve lost 4 kg in 6 days and that’s not even exercising yet. I can’t wait to start exercising and see the results. I’m not very overweight, but I did have weight that would budge no matter what I did (belly fat) and this calorie forced deficit is now helping that weight shift. There’s only one thing I hate about having a gastric balloon and that is my husband cook delicious meals and deserts and I can’t partake! Even though I can’t eat doesnt mean the food doesn’t smell AMAZING! 🤤
just had the same two weeks ago, and all i am suffering because of good food my husband cooking and people inviting us on dinners which i cant eat. how ever you any idea, how to handle constipation after gastric balloon?
It’s been 7days since I had my procedure, the first 4 days was hell but it gets better as each day passes by and thanks to my support group. They are really helpful .
I am a month in with the balloon and can honestly say it's been awful, the stomach pains are unreal, the nausea was dreadful - i have only JUST stopped being sick, but the worst thing by an absolute mile is the tiredness.... I'm literally crawling into bed about 8.30pm because I am so tired, to be fair i haven't even lost that much weight either, for the first two weeks I could barely eat a thing... I won't even go there with the belching and f@rting... that has just been the most embarrasing ever... I am at a loss really, everyone else seems to breeze through this and I , for whatever reason, am finding it one of the hardest things i've ever done... and I feel alone with no support...
@@sss-r4990 In the end it took 5 weeks for all the above symptoms to go away - it wasn't pleasant at all - I am only 1.5st down, I do feel a lot better and I am glad I stuck with it although it was bad - I feel better mentally too. Before I was looking in the mirror and wanting to literally cry - I laothed myself on an epic scale - at the moment ,with the weight loss I feel much less inclined to hate on myself as much as I did. The balloon has taught me that even though I was eating really healthy stuff before (and was overweight) I was eating far too much of it... In fact I was eating and drinking far too much of every, single thing. i've learned you can survive on much less, not to eat like a little piggy and take time over food..... small portions, I now dish everything up on a side plate rather than a dinner plate.
if youre over weight, then youre probably already eating too much for your activity level. this keeps me from feeling hungry, and helps me eat less as a result.
I'm about to go through this procedure and I was under the impression that maybe in a month I'd be able to eat smaller amounts of what I'd typically eat. Rethinking my decision now reading responses of people on here. I am very obese so I really need something like this. Ozempic worked for me but there's still limited supply coming in 7 months after I had to stop taking it (because there was no supply at all where I live). I wish people who don't really need Ozempic stop taking it if they don't really need it so people like me don't have to consider uncomfortable procedures like this.
my husband did the stuture (sewing ) where there are no cuts and I think that is a better option. they also go through the mouth. and he was fine the next day.
@@200StellaI’m still throwing up 6 months after my operation and I’ve 6 months still to go. The last few days have been toucher. With heartburn and gastric reflux. I’m taking the prescribed medication twice daily. Thinking of calling it a day and having it removed. Don’t get me wrong I’ve lost 20 kg.

How is this different from starving yourself? Doesn't this mess up your metabolism?

Doc i need some help, i feel that i cant keep my water down, and dont pee normal, i have amber color pee
I have done my baloon last week now kidneys pain start from last day i did try to be hydrated but i can't drink it gave me vomit
Is it okay be on keto diet with baloon please?
Google"pe diet". That's the next evolution past keto.
I thought that the first two months you couldn’t drink anything with lactose.. I just had mine put 2 days ago
How is ur journey so far?
I was thinking on getting this done , but eating like that I would lose the 20 pounds without the balloon
I thought the same thing too….. just does 3 weeks eating like this you will loose 20 pounds
Hi does this apply with allurion pallon?
It applies to most types of gastric balloons, but make sure you follow the specific diet set out by your clinic or doctor!
How much does it cost
This method for weight loss is very unappealing.
This is same as diet😂 no sugar and etc
I did it and I agree
