I was banded on 1/20/2011. I started at 237.5 and am currently 219.5. My greatest issue is finding things I can eat. I am just starting on soft foods, and have experienced that (sick feeling) on several occassions. Its like I start to cough, then birp, then hiccup, and there is a pain in my chest, and whatever is in my mouth, I immediately have to spit out. Nothing has come back up,but I do have to spit quite a bit, then it passes. I dont know what thats all about, but its not a good feeling. Anyway, its not bad, and I am not really eating alot.. So I guess its working. Tell me about some of your experiences in this area.

I was banded on the same day! I had alot of GAS!! That causes me to feel like i'm going to lose my lunch but I just wait a sec and let the burp come up and I'm okay. I started taking GAS-X before I eat about 15 min and it helps alot!

      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! 😞
