I need some help!

[Rsdtj12 0]

Was banded on May 1st - have lost only 22 pounds. Have had two fills and one almost unfill. I can't seem to keep anything down...spend most of my time puking. Lost my job a month ago with my insurance so I can't go back to the doc until I findi another job with insurance.

Maybe I am trying to ear too much??? I don't know...my first six weeks were heaven....now it is hoirrible. I am definately wondering at this point why I did this.

Can you tell me what you typically eat throughout the day? Maybe I am trying to eat more than I should.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Sherry:faint:

Well, Sherry, I wish I could help you. I have been banded only since August 27th. Your nightmare is my greatest fear. I do know this; keep plenty fluids going. You do not want to be dehydrated. Good luck. Let me know what happens.

In my experience - and I seem to have a lot of it since I just had a slip and spent WAY too much time throwing up - once you vomit your stomach is irritated. It's important to back off and stop trying to get food down. Go back to liquids for a day or so - then mushies. Give your stoma time to go back to normal. What ever you do - don't force it. And stay calm. Stress can also cause increased restriction.

All the best,
