Hi, I had my lapband out on 31st March 2010. I had no fill and high restriction and was vomitting on a daily basis and somedays the restriction was so great i could barely keep any liquid down. Since having the band out i am still struggling to eat or drink normally. I am not sure if it is just because for the past 7 years i have struggled with eating and drinking and maybe my mind is playing games with me or if my stomach has not "returned" to how it was prior getting the band. I have been sticking towards softer/mushy foods at the moment as my wounds are still fresh and sore , so do not want to over do it. I have been getting shoulder pain, mainly when i get the hiccups or breath too deep. Hope all goes well for you

Hi, Sorry to hear that you are having hard time since having the band out. I had my band out on 31th March and have a few questions. Did you find it hard to eat again? Are you able to eat "anything you want"? eg items that you could not eat when banded?? I am struggling to eat most things and am still vomitting on a daily basis.
