  1. Well I'd been throwing up for about to weeks. Didn't think much of it because I'd throw up thick spit and whatever I tried to get down, no pain just relief. BUT this weekend was the one that did it for me, I had 2 scoops of rice and I immediately started to vomit like I usually did but I didn't feel any type of relief this time. I continued to vomit until I just started to vomit acidic tasting black gunk or coffee grounds like my Dr referred to it which was a "none panicky way" of telling me that it was blood. So he made me go get an xray and take it to his office and showed how my band was waaay off from where it was originally and told me he had to operate in 48 hrs or less so I wouldn't get a perforated stomach which would be even worse. So he empties my band as much as he could and I got surgery 2 days ago ( feeling great btw) to loosen the band all the way and in about a month & 1/2 when all my swelling goes completely down I go back to get my band placed properly. I can't wait.
  2. oh, thanks. i didnt even think about the IV or the meds i´ve been thinking about what to do for the next month 1/2 though before i get my band re placed where it needs to be. i wouldnt wanna go through what ive gone through in the past week let alone the past few days, uggh! horrible. i really dont wanna gain a whole lot of weight cause i´m the kind of person that just thinking about food makes me gain weight
  3. Hey guys. I'm 29 yrs old and I had my band put in March 19,2012. Went into surgery 273lbs and went into surgery yesterday morning 209lbs. My hubby says that I should've just taken off my band but HELLO!? I've lost 64lbs in 5 months and not only that I paid $14k cash to get rid of my investment just like. But my main concern is weight gain, I weighed myself 2day and I weigh 8 more then yesterday. And I've gotta wait a whole month and a half before getting my band re placed properly.
