My nephew's wife told me about this site and it's great. I had Lap Band surgery on May 25, 2010 and so far I've lost 54 pounds. I'm feeling great except that I'm having a hard time getting to the right adjustment. I pretty much feel nauseous all morning even if I don't eat or drink. Is this normal? I had to have 2 cc removed in December because I was too full. I've had 2 fills since then and now I have to be really careful. I usually throw up in the morning. Then I eat very small amounts the rest of the day. I love the weight loss but I sure don't like struggling so hard just to stay hydrated and minimally nourished. Does anyone else feel this way? How do you ever get to the right adjustment??

Thanks for the encouragement. I didn't realize it would get looser with weight loss. I've lost 6 lbs in 12 days since last adjustment, so I hope I'm getting close to getting more comfortable.

I have gluten sentitivity but I can't really eat breads or pastas with my band anyway. I stick with corn based starches such as corn tortillas, oatmeal, and potatoes for starches, but not much of those either. It's such a struggle for me to get in enough protein and some vegetables and fruit that I usually don't have room for the starches.
