So for almost 2 weeks now I have been having trouble keeping things down, after everything I try to eat it comes back up...and I start hiccuping right away...and they are loud and annoying. So I think an unfill is needed right? Also ladies does your bra ever make you feel like your choking when food is stuck?

I think the bites I am taking are too big and it's hard to swallow..someone said fingernail size..maybe I should try that... I have been throwing up a lot because food is constantly getting stuck...liquids go down fine so I don't think it's too tight..live and learn I guess...

I am 5 months post surgery and I am in need of advice, my last full was like 5 weeks ago and since then things are hard to swallow. My husband had the same surgery a year and a half ago and he told me to swallow in small portions but its not working, it's hard remembering...how do you do it? I need advice...I am basically throwing after my first few bites because its stuck and I can't eat or breath anymore. And is it bad to make myself throw up? Help me please

It's been a week and a half since the fill, so I can't eat meat or chicken, no matter how much I chew it won't go down...rice won't go down, I think I need an unfill....

So I get the pb'ing but my food gets stuck so bad sometimes I have to make myself throw up by sticking my hand in my throat...is that what causes the band to slip?

So I got a fill the other day and now hardly anything goes down, I think I have to have it loosened right? I had surgery in December and lost 20 pounds before and right after the surgery but since then I have lost nothing, it's going on 5 months now...am I doing something wrong?

My doctor gave me medicine for the gallbladder so I don't get gallstones...I think they just started doing that...

I just got my second fill and now have 4 c's..and when I try to eat the food gets stuck so bad I feel like I can't breath. The pain is so awful, I'm chewing the food to applesauce consistency but it's not working...any ideas?

I am mad at myself too, I'm only 2cc's tight and eating like crazy...luckily I am getting it filled Tuesday...don't give up!

I eat lentils...string cheese...deli meat..

Ok I'm confused I am not losing any weight...I had my fill last week and have moved to lentils and soft foods and I'm off the soup but now I'm not losing weight...is it the lentils? I'm kind of bummed out..my portions are about 4oz each time...

I am 2 days past my fill...I do have a list of stuff to eat I just wanted some ideas...

So I need ideas on what to eat now, first fill was 2cc's...I'm no longer on liquids woo hoo!!! I want food ideas please...

Update: I counted calories and I'm at 820, not sure if that's too low or not, may be why I'm so hungry...

I haven't been counting calories, maybe I will today to see how much I consume...maybe I'm not getting in my calories....I had an initial problem and the doctor took out 2cc's of fluid from the band so now I'm wondering when ingot for my full Wednesday how much he will fill it. I could barely catch my breath with the 2cc's.

I had lap band 2 weeks ago and have been in a liquid diet for a month now. But recently I go to bed very hungry with lots of rumbling in my tummy..I eat soup, 60 G protein shake, jello, pudding and v8 so what am I doing wrong????

I have now been on a liquid diet for a month and still have 11 days left according to my doctor...I'm bored with my menu..any suggestions? I know I haven't been filled and could eat regular food but I don't want any I'm just bored..and does anyone know why everything has to be sugar free...so far I'm down 15 pounds...

Called the doctor they told me to come in or go to ER, the pain is a sharp stabbing pain starting in my chest and going towards my left side, it's worst than my c-section! I cried today:( I also walked for almost 3 hours today but to no avail...

Day 5 and still the same....doctor told me to take milk of magnesium but all that did was give me the runs...am kind of dehydrated if it keeps up I may need to go to the ER.. My pain is sharper then ever..I don't know what to do:(

I had surgery on Thursday and I'm in so much pain I want to cry, not sure if its gas...I'm okay when I'm lying down but as soon as I sit up and drink anything or eat my jello or what have you I have this awful pain all through my stomach and the space in between my chest...anyone lease have this? I'm trying gas-x but nothing is happening...

Hi, I had my lap band surgery on the 17th, I've had a lot of pain but the most is in between my chest it feels like it's burning..like heartburn I guess...and I'm not hungry so I really haven't eaten anything except a ton of liquids...anyone else have that burning sensation?
