    Unable to keep foods down

    I know you posted this a long time ago but I am experiencing the same problems now. I was wondering what your outcome was?

    Unable to eat

    I was banded in Jan and had my first fill in June. I was filled 2.5cc. After this I was unable to have more than liquids and so had 1cc removed. Initially after the fill eating was not too difficult however, after 2-3 weeks eating solid food became difficult again. I have had acid reflux - which I have never suffered from before, and pain in my upper back after I eat some foods. I vomit up many foods no matter how much or how slow I eat. I am finding it so difficult to have anything near a balanced diet. I am wondering if I need to have more taken out - any thoughts or similar experiences.

    First day eating after First fill.

    Thanks for this post - it is exactly what I am going through. I had my first fill 2 weeks ago. Because it was a long time (5 months) after my surgery the doctor made it quite tight. He told me liquids for 2 weeks. I have slowly started to introduce food again over the weekend and it did not go well. My story is similar to yours... I would start off well and then get a pain in the back of my throat like my food was sitting there. I am very happy with liquids they go through without too much of an effort. I would like to introduce one proper meal a day though and build up to more. I think I am trying to eat too much at once, although with liquids I have been struggling to get enough calories. Any other words of wisdom???

    How can you get financial help?

    I am booked for 26th Jan. I am going private. It is costing about £7500. I was approved for £3000 loan and put the rest on credit card. I couldn't get a loan for the full amount because I have only lived here 2 years. It was quite a stressful time sorting out if I could pay for it but I think it'll be worth it in the end. I'm looking forward to 2008!!!
  8. I am booked in at the end of Jan. I have a wedding to go to in India in March/April. I'm just wondering how easy it is to travel and find food you can eat? I don't really want to tell the people I am travelling with that I have had the surgery and am concerned I'll ruin it for them by struggling at meal times. Thoughts????
