Posted by msdetermine59 in msdetermine59's Blog, January 25, 2013 - · 0 views Good morning. I am post opt December 18, 12. Like some other comments on here I to was always hungry. Even though I still followed all of the rules I was still always hungry. So last night I decided to push the envelope a little. Wrong. When I eat I use small plates and small forks so I do not put much on it and wait 1 minute before eating another bite small bites. So last night my aunt sent some dry lima beans with dumplings and it had beef in it. So instead of me just getting a 1/2 cup of the beans I grab a big bowl because that is my weakness meal:(. So sometimes I even forget I have a band. I ate that bowl of beans not slow and I did not chew chew chew along with small bits of beef. So I was in excruciating pain from 8 pm last night until 6 am this morning. No matter what I did I could not find relief. I try not to throw up but I ended up doing that hoping I would get some relief but I did not. I moved around asking God to take that pain away and I would never do that again. Nothing work. I kept my husband up all night for doing that. I ended up throwing up again and it scared me because it was coming out of my nose also. I called my doctor and told him what I did but it was nothing he could do and he told me I just had to wait until it passed. I was in so much pain I did not think I was going to make it. I am still in a little pain but nothing like last night and this morning. I will never ever do that again. I try to eat some tomato soup this morning and I felt like I wanted to throw it up so I did not eat it. Has anyone ever been in this situation and if so what did you do. Did you go back to liquids or soft foods. The doctors do not like it when they hear this and I could tell my doctor did not like what I did. I will never put myself in this situation again. Times like this if anyone ask me would I do this all over again and I would say no!! No I would not do this again. But after thinking about it this is why I am in this situation now because I over ate and with the band it keeps me from doing that until last night. Never again but I am still glad I went through with it. Now that I am feel a little better I would do it again.

Good luck girl. I was banded on December 18 and the best decision I ever made. When is your surgery??? Keep me posted.

Dylanmiles23. Child I know exactly what you mean. I miss chewing so bad. Girl I would welcome a piece of fish right about now:). I am doing things to pass away time. I have started walking some, talking to my family just to pass the days away because now that I have this band I am definite not going to cheat because I do not want anything getting stuck. So I will be following the rules. Have a blessed day.

Well hello my lap band friends. I finally had my surgery and it was not to bad @ all. Left my throat sore. I am just so glad it is over with. I know one thing I look forward to eating right I tell you that and right now I would welcome the healthy foods.lol. So if I can get pass another week or so of liquids I will be ok. I want to thank everyone for all of the kind words. At least with this site I do not feel alone. The pain in my shoulder can be a little unbearable but I have to hang in there. Carolina girl I want to thank you for your wonderful comment and I hope you are right:))). I know you are beautiful also!

I am trying to find everything in the world to keep me busy so I will not eat then I will be sorry. I definite cannot cheat because my lb surgery is tomorrow. Which me luck:))
