terrified to eat!



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! Sorry to bother you, but I had a question. I just got back from my doctor and she gave me another 0.6cc in my band (I have a LapBand APS 10cc band). I now have 7cc in my band. Before my third fill, I could still eat about a cup or maybe a little more of food per meal. I got some things stuck (bread, chicken) and as you all know, it wasnt fun! :crying:I'm not to eat solid foods till Monday, but I am afraid to eat. Will things start getting stuck left and right since there is so much more saline in my band? I'm sorry to bother you guys, but I'm just scared. :biggrin: Thanks for your time! Leeanne

I know how you feel, I have 7cc in a 9cc band and I get stuck all the time. I do think alot of it is my fault because I think I eat too fast or take bigger bites, I still haven't mastered that yet. Just start out slow and try one thing at a time to see how it goes. I was really scared too but what is really weird to me is that one day I can eat a slice of pizza or a piece of chicken and the next day I can't. I always try to stick to a Protein and vegetables for lunch and dinner so far that still goes down pretty good. :biggrin:

Thanks LPayton! The same things happen to me..one day I can eat something and the next day it gets stuck! I guess it's going to be trial and error! Good luck! :lol:

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
