throwing up

After 2 months of feeling pretty good and being able to eat anything I wanted....I got a fill 2 days ago and today I ate 1/2 piece of toast and 2 bits of egg and ....blah. I sat with it for about 10 minutes until I realized that it wasnt going to go down. I went to the bathroom to throw up. Its different than throwing up before. Now it comes from the chest area , not the belly. I felt better afterwards. Later today I was able to finish my food with out problems. Is it normal for foods to work sometimes and not others? How ofter do people throw up?

I am trying to find out the answer to this question also. Some days I can vomit everytime I eat or drink. Other days it is better. I was able to eat more than I wanted to until my 3rd fill (5.5 cc/10cc band). I have pretty much been vomitting for 10 days -- since my last fill. I eat slowly--afraid to really eat much now. and chew thoroughly and then some.

Kelly111 I was just like you. I could eat anything until I got my second fill. I threw up for 2 weeks straight as I had to relearn everything ago. All of those tips from the doctor really came into play. Drink 30 minutes before eating, take super small bites, and take your time. I really don't do very well with bread or chicken. Both of these things I could still eat post band until my second fill. You will learn what works with your band and what doesn't. Good luck as you learn what works!
