It is possible that i am in a bander hell! Its also possible that life is hard right now. Of course i am making the best of this and i WILL NOT GIVE UP!!!! ok so here is my problem and just so everyone knows i am working through it! I will win this fight i really will! Ok so last month i couldn't eat at all and that is hard no matter what so they took out .4cc's not to much and i did just fine. This time i went back and they put in .5cc's so yeah i was kinda worried. But i thought they know what they are doing right? Ok so the first day i could eat i tried a hamburger patter on my lunch break with my boss and i throw up everything NOT fun. so today i go black eyed peas and it seem to go down but im only eating about 10% or less and I feel tired real fast and then i feel hungry and its actually hunger not head hunger so ill go back and eat a little more. I went to my regular dr today because i got a spider bite and well that's not fun either but in the past week i have lost a good 8lbs. AWESOME for me because i thought with all the eating that's really good well now that i think about it that's not really so good 8lbs since Monday..... Idk maybe it in my head i am having issues and i honestly don't know what to do i don't want any thing taken out of my band so should i be worried or should i just go with it?? can someone help me?

I would like to help but I am not clear why you are asking for help. If I am reading correctly you lost 8lbs since last Monday. If that is true, I would think that 8lbs in a week is a really good week. Are you thinking it was too much or not enough?

You also said that you are only eating 10% or less of your food and then go back and eat a little more but later say that with all the eating that you orginally thought 8lbs was good. So are you thinking you are eating too much or too little? If you know, it might be more helpful to know how many calories you are eating and what types of food you are eating.

If you could answer those questions as well as clarify why you think you should be worried, I am sure if I can't help some else may be able to give you some advice.

Ok im Sorry i wasn't clear sometimes my brain is thinking before my hands can type. Ok i am eating 10% or less when i sit down to eat after that i get hungry about an hour or two later and then im lucky if it 5%. I am getting under 400 calories a day. And eight pounds is ok however there is such a thing as loosening to fast and i seem to have a big problem with that for exp I was filled to tight last month and it was hard to drink any thing and eat when i went back for help to Bariatric solutions the new nurse was like oh 11lbs in a month is real good i said no its been a week she was like oh that's not good. So i Know that its not good to loose to much at one time but should i keep with the amount in the band or should i be worried?? I hope that clears it up.

Thanks for the clarification.

I would say you need to tell them, because you may be too tight. While we all got the band to lose weight, we also should want to maintain our health while we do it. I am not sure 400 calories a day is a good idea and that your body can continue to be healthy on so little calories/nutrition for a long period of time. If being healthy and fit is also your goal, you really need to talk that over with your doctor as soon as possilbe.
