Can Running Shift Band?



Recommended Posts

After losing 65 pounds i have now gotten to the point where i can start running again. I started my running program on Sunday. Since i have started running i have noticed that i am not able to eat or drink anything without throwing up. Has anyone else had this problem? Has my band shifted? Idon't want to give up the running as this is what gets me in shape.... but i also do not want to spend all my time hunched over the toilet. Any one who has had eperience with this i would appreciate hearing from!

Thanks! :D

There are LOTS of bandsters who run. I'm up to "wogging"...lol, walking with little spurts of jogging.

I say, call your doctor to discuss what's happening. It could be nothing more than a stomach bug...or something else. Best to know. And, it's not good to be throwing up, so it's time to check in the professionals and figure out what's going on!

Good luck!

After I started to jog again after dropping 100 lbs I did notice that for a little while I had pain in my port area or discomfort. It went away but if it continues call the doctor.

I would call your doctor and schedule a visit. Sometimes right after a run I am a little tight, depending on how hydrated I am, but I have always been able to drink and eat.

I started running in October and I had some port pain, but never any pain with the band itself. The port pain did subside, but I did take a 2 week break to give my tummy some time to adjust and I haven't looked back!

I hope you are feeling better and have been able to get back on the road!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
