  1. Thanks for the insight! Thing is I cant drink in the morning either...hic ups and rthen throwing up even if I sip it. I went today and my Dr seems to think that my stomach is irritated at the band sight. We are trying some different stomach meds instead of the omeprazole. I hope this works...I was doing really well losing steady until all this happened now I am at a stand still and still not at my "ideal" weight. Are they serious when they say I need to be at 143 pounds to be at my ideal weight? nI will be a toothpick...Again thanks for the insight.( od and my dr says the ice cream works because it is taking the swelling from the irritation down. So Im eating it... it fat free and sugar free,and when I say ice cream I mean frozen yogurt.Its all I eat as far as sweets.
  2. Let me first start off by saying that I am a brand new member as of today! I am looking forward to any and all advice and or feedback that I may receive. My problem is this... I can not eat or drink anything during the day,that is until around 4pm,and I always have to eat ice cream before I can put "real" food in. If I do try to eat or drink I have hic ups, burping accompanied by stomic bile and I have to make my self throw up to make it go away. Some days I can not even swallow my own spit. Thing is once I eat the ice cream,and this is not every day that this works, I can eat to no end I have no restriction. There is no happy medium? I had a problem where my sugar dropped to 39 do they removed some of my Fluid, and now I have no restriction after the ice cream. I can not take the omeprazole they prscribed me because I can not put anything in in the morning. Please help! They have already done an upper GI and xrays and there is no slippage. My Dr actually told me he thinks it is all in my mind..... is this possible . I got down to 159 and they removed fluid, they said I was so dehydrated that I had no tears...I am now at 180 and they want me at 143. Is this possible?Is it all in my mind? April
