Sorry you having a rough time! I'd ask my doc to take some fluid out if you keep throwing up. I get stuck but it's on food i KNOW i'm not supposed to be eating! What are you gettin stuck on? i too, get stuck on chicken...try the dark meat..it's not as dry!

I CAN TOTALLY RELATE!!! I get stuck all the time too and it last all damn day! Its aweful. I have these days all the time and I havent lost weight in 2 months! I can get stuck on a protein shake. Its certainly NOT what Im eating..... its just the band deciding that it has an attitude that day and thats it for me. Other days I eat perfectly fine. You're right! No one ever tells you this stuff. Ive been spreading the word though. I have only lost 30 lbs. I truly thought after all of this and all this money I would have lost more weight than this.

thank you kelly, no one tells you this...thats my damn issue, I wish someone had been HONEST and up front with me, if one more person tells me "it's what your eating"...NO IT'S NOT!!!! I can stuck on pudding sometimes, its the damn band has a mind all it's own and it makes me mad!!!

Good luck and keep fighting,,,

I am like Kelly. My band has a mind of it's own. Somedays I can eat mostly normally. THis morning I got stuck on my yogurt and before somebody says take smaller bites, it was 1/2 a baby spoon!

Personally I'm tired of this life as well. I don't lose and I don't eat either. I've gotten to where I don't want to eat with anyone ever, never know how it will go.

I'm never hungry and I haven't lost in 9 weeks. Stuck for 9 solid weeks at exactly the same weight. No up and no down.

Had I know that at 7 years out that more than 60% of people have to have it removed because of slippage, corrioson or damage I would NEVER have done this to my body.

If removal were free I'd do it in a heart beat, no reservation. Being self pay though, man I've spent enough!

Can you get some fluid removed -- sounds like you're too tight -- shouldn't be that way - talk to your doctor again and get some help. It's awful to have spent so much and be so miserable.

60% have it removed....damn where are all this things before surgery.....and I am sorry I dont think docs tell us all, I went friday for a fill and somehow I have screws and bolts in me... I was like HUH??? you never told me that.. his responce was.."I did to"...Like he is 3 .....
