Band Self-Tightened??!



Recommended Posts

I've been super stressed these last three days. My 2 year old had adenoids out and tubes put in. Starting yesterday, I have been SUPER tight with LOTS of heart burn. It's been just a little better today. liquids are going down ok. Do you think it's just stress??

I know I've been under a lot of stress lately and my band is tightening right up on me. I would give it a couple days to see if it relaxes when the stress lessens. If the stress lessens and you still feel too tight, then definitely call your doc.

btw- my son had tubes in his ears when he was a toddler, too. They bounce back SUPER fast! Much quicker than us adults do.

Best wishes.

I was banded two months ago and I'm still learning my band. I do know that whenever I'm stressed my band gets tight and I've learned (the hard way) that I shouldn't eat. I've also learned (the hard way) to take SMALL bites an chew, chew, chew!!!!!!

      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! 😞
