Not loosing weight 5 months out.

I had my surgery on Dec 10, 2012, but now 5 months later I am not loosing weight. I go down 7pound and then gain it back over 2 or 3 days ever dropping below that 7 pounds. What am I doing wrong?? I can hardly eat, vomit daily, usually 4 or more times a day. It's usually clear liquid and can happen even with just drinking Water. Has anyone else had this issue???

Also I had my last fill over month ago and this problem only started 2 an half weeks ago...

From the description of your symptoms, I would already be at the ER. Take care of yourself.

I would be heading to the hospital.. I'm obviously not a doctor but it sounds like you are already dehydrated :(

I hope like heck your not but you can never be careful.

I have an appointment on Thursday, but I just went on a almost full liquid diet. It's work so far I've been able to stop the vomiting so that's good. I will be seeing doc in 4 days & I will post as soon as I do so.

I have had occasional episodes similar to that. I've discovered that my band gets really tight during certain times of the month when I'm retaining water. I have to go on liquids for a few days. My dr said as long as I can get down water and lean protein it's ok. But if you are vomiting water, that is a sure sign that your band is too tight. Even though your fill was a month ago it can take a couple of weeks for you to feel its full effects.

Yeah I think it may be just that...I have found certain days I can actually handle solids but mostly stick to liquids...protein drinks and soft foods like banana's, yogurt, and oatmeal. I think I may have had a virus before & that's why I was getting so sick for 2 weeks.
