I had my band put in about 5 years ago since then I have had 2 little boys and got derailed. Anyways since my last child I have noticed that I have trouble eating first thing in the morning and then once it gets warmer though out the day it gets even harder. I might take 3 or 4 bites and feel like poop. It really doesn't matter if its a scrambled egg of baked chicken I end up feeling like crap. How ever once it starts to cool off I have no problems eating normal stuff. Anyone have this problem ?

A friend said she had this problem. She said what she did was about 30 minutes before dinner, she'd take a bite or two of something, and then by dinner, she was able to eat. I'm sorry--hope this helps!

I'm a fellow bander who shares the problem of not being able to eat in the a.m.

coffee or tea seems ok. By the afternoon, if I can try to get a little lite lunch in, (Soup. Small salad etc)

I'm better. If I wait, the first food has to be easy on my stomach.... Once I feel more open, I'm ok for dinner.... I tend to eat early

Just another major adjustment I made to my life to make it work at a much lighter weight. Not always convenient, but way better than any day I had at 250+ lbs!

I am trying to figure out if its because I have put on weight in the last 2 years due to my last pregnancy and some issues with the IUD hormones that have cleared up since i had it removed or if this will be my new normal. I have tried even eating easy foods in the day time and it just sucks. It is nice to know I am not alone and I just have to keep looking for something that will work for me.
