Well Folks, I was banded Dec. 22, 2009 and had my first fill on Monday this week.

I ate a toasted tuna sandwich yesterday and somehow I know there is still a piece of it stuck in my pouch. I can feel it in there, kinda tasted it when I went to bed last night. Everything is still going down fine, so I don't have a blockage, but this is really irritating. I ate very few scrambled eggs last night because I was full very, very fast. I drink constantly. I tried some very hot tea this morning and even Diet Coke today. I chugged it... nothing.

Any ideas?? Short of going to get unfilled?? I have to drive 240 miles to do that!!

Thanks!:)

I really wouldn't worry about it if it's not blocking anything, I would think it will desolve soon enough. I can't do bread at all. Crackers work for me so I use them with tuna. I wouldn't try the soda thing again, It's really not good for bandsters and surely not guzzling it. You might do more damage then good.

I ALWAYS wait until at least 2 weeks after a fill before I eat bread and then it has to be toasted. Good luck!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.ย  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.ย  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? Itโ€™s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so Iโ€™m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight.ย It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey โค๏ธย Together, we got this!
