Hello people. So I had a bad stick on some pasta last night. Threw up like 5 times. No big deal as it happens rarely and I can deal with it. My band is very irritated and swollen today from this. Is there any remedy you have? I am swollowing ice chips hoping this will sooth the problem. Anyone else have this happen?

Lol oh man I am out of here. I can't deal with the Naive people on here. No wonder everyone in this world is so fat.

Lol! show the picture. It covers one spline on the fork. Okay a pea and a half. At somepoint you make your choice more restriction or more self control, am I wrong? I applaud you losing that fast. I don't have that much to lose. Not everyone does. I have 50 to lose and I don't care if it takes me 5 years. Thank you Jen and DiNaMaRiE617 I got the band to not have to calorie count and log. I've already lost 25 without any restriction. Although I do feel restriction. Your choice is your choice. I would like to know if you have so much self control why so restricted?

I don't know if all doctors do it but my band is sewn permanently to my stomach wall. My doctor said that most slips come from vomitting so violently it tears the stitches. Is anyone else's band stiched to the stomach wall?

So I was reading a post the other day and someone showed a fork with a pea sized bit on it. I thought to myself. I will never eat a bite that small. To me that would be rediculous. I would rather have some sort of self control then live like that. That is not normal in my opinion. My question is. Do any of you feel the same way? Has anyone learned some sort of self control so you don't have your band tight as can be? I know for a fact I will never eat one pea at a time.

Ye that is what I'm saying gasssp sigh. I can't share my opinion without being judged? Because I got away with it don't hate. Lol!

I know ifs wrong but I did 4 days liquid then started on well chewed food. I've been fine.

Me too empty band till 6 weeks. I feel restricted already.

Watch for redness I'm not sure it should still hurt so bad!

To me if you chew it enough its mushy. No different then swallowing tuna.

I can't believe you guys didn't get to stay in the hospital overnight. I wish I could have stayed two nights better drugs and pampering.

Wow I got the band not to give up anything. Just eat less. Im losing fine. No biggie. I know its against the band Bible oh well!

I ate two days before. A giant sandwich. My liver was perfect. Its your body. I don't regret it.

I wanted a crane to get me out of bed! I really had no gas. So sorry for all the infection stories was it the port that was infected? I tweaked my port today I had to lift something on the side of the road. I shouldn't have. I tell people I can't even feel the band its the port that hurts!

Well lived on it post open I should say. Slider foods are OK as a treat if they are low Cal.
