Hi guys, i'v been banded since july of this year,i have a lrg band 14cc currently have 5 1/2 fill. I know I'm not at my green zone yet ! But i notice after eating i get nauseous it will last about 1 to 2 hrs. then it goes away ,i never throw up just that feeling ! Anyone else get this way ? could it be i am eating more then i should? i only eat at around 11am ish and then at dinner.Thou when i eat at brunch i am very hungry ! Please i need some feed back !

Thanks Tonyann

My first thought is are you eating too fast? If I don't wait a minute between each bit I get a full/sick feeling. Don't get sick, just miserable for a few hours.

How much food are you eating at your meals? You may be eating too much or too little.

Also My Dr said the band is designed to hold you for 4 hrs between food... so maybe brunch at 11 and dinner at 6 is too long to go and your tummy is so empty the food makes it unsettled.

Just an idea.....

thanks guys for the info ! i will eat a little something in between my meals (something healthy) and yes i think i do eat too fast i will have to start eating slower!

Thanks Tonyann

Hi tonyann, I have a feeling that you are waiting too long before eating your 1st meal of the day, and so your are eating too much. Have something too break your fast after waking. It doesn't have to be much. If you don't have an appetite, try some greek yogurt, as it has more protein than the regular kind. Or, maybe you can have some skinny cow cheese bites. Anything that breaks your fast, so that by brunch you are not starving and either eating too much, or eating too fast. Nausea is not a normal reaction to lapband. Best wihses. Karen
