Hi Everyone: I hope this message will not encourgage anyone on how i feel. Just needed some support. Been banded since 12/16/11, almost a year has gone by. My weight lost was from 240 to 163. Now since them i have been depressed on what to eat. Its really hard for me to see someone eating a hamburger with a bun! Potatoes, squash, rich, eggs, green beans, broccoli and yorgurt are so hard for me to eat. It doesn't matter how i eat them or cut them, they just don't feel good. I had to change doctor due to moving from another state. I now weight 180 and i don't understand how i gained weight. It don't seem like i eat anything. I have been having a couple glasses of Bailey's Irish Cream! Can you believe i can drink this! There are a lost of days i ask myself why did i do this! Please give me some suggestions. Thanks, Kelly

Hi Everyone: I was banded 12/12/11 and I have lost 71 pounds! I know it’s great, but it’s really hard for me. I have good days and then I mostly have bad days. I can't keep anything down and I feel like I want my life back. I'm missing eating (hamburgers, pasta, and rice) I can't even keep yogurt down. I currently have 5cc in my band. I can't have any potatoes which is my all-time favorite. I'm totally missing food! Believe me I eat really slow and have really little bites. Most of the time I wish I wouldn't have this done. I'm so depressed about having this surgery! We recently moved from Texas to Tennessee and finally after 3 months trying to get into a new doctor I have an appointment July 31. Please let me know if anyone is having these issues! Thanks, Kelly

I'm wondering what people that have 5cc's filled on a 10cc band eat on a typical day... I know that everyone is different, but I'm struggling. Help! Kelly

I have banded since 12/12/11. I have 3.5 cc in my band. I'm having problems finding things to eat that doesn't hurt or end up throwing up. I have lost 40lbs and I'm really feeling pretty depressed about the surgery. Please give me some advice! Kelly

Thank you everyone!

I just had my second fill this past Monday. I can not eat anything, if I try to eat then I just keep throwing up. After throwing up a few times it becomes more like foam. Is there anything that anyone can suggest to do or eat? Is anyone else having this problem?

Fantasic Can you tell what kinds of food you can't eat anymore.
