Did my Band Slip??



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

So I am starting to freak out a little bit. I had a little stomach bug this past Saturday and threw up 3 times. I am not having any pain, no relflux, and no nausea. I do feel that my appetite it larger that it "should" be. I have not gained any weight either. I would normally go see my surgeon tomorrow...but I will be on my way to Mexico for vacation until next Tuesday. Should I worry?????

Thank you!!

Maybe you're just hungrier because you're recuperating from being sick?

If you can keep food down, I doubt your band has slipped. Maybe stay on liquids/soft foods for a few days to allow any swelling to go down before you go to Mexico.

I agree. take it from a lady that a slippage. You sound like you need to relax and take a light diet for a few days to let the swelling go down. Good luck, Karen

      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! 😞
