Why is the band rejecting food?
Sunday - 1 meat patty - cut into small pieces chew chew chew even dipped in ketcup and hot sauce ate less than 1/2 the patty.. PB ..voluntary vomit
Monday - grilled chicken, cut into small pieces chew chew chew.. PB and volumtary vomit then my chest burned so bad I helped it along (I know I should but I was in extreme pain)
Today - TUNA... soft tuna... PB and vomit... I felt it stuck on top.. now I had oatmeal earlier and I wonder if that wasn't down yet and the tuna sat on top...??
I can eat cereal tho.. which is bad that's my go to food!! GRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrRRRRRRRR
Any suggestions..
Haven't had a fill in AWHILE.. so I'm not tight well I haven't been anyways... aunt flo just passed finished today....
I have some days where I can eat just fine, then I'll have a bad day. What I've noticed is that the days I get a lot to drink seem to be better eating days. I think it keeps everything loosened up. My band tightens up a lot overnight, to the point some mornings I even have a hard time getting yogurt to go down.
Someone recommended drinking warm/hot liquids in the AM, and this really helps.
Good luck. If you continue to have problems, I'd check with your doctor.
It does sound like you're a bit too tight if you can't eat that much protein - especially if you're chewing well, going slowly and taking small bites.
I had to get an unfill after not having a fill in like 8 months. Not sure what happened, my band just got tighter! Strange little thing.
Have you talked to your Dr.?

It sounds like you are actually too tight at the moment. But that can be temporary. For me stress does it every time - whether it be anger, fear, unhappiness, eager anticipation! Any strong emotion which lasts any length of time. I go back to teaching tomorrow and I am not at all nervous - a job I know well, kids I know, staff I work well with and all my preparations are done. But I still couldn't eat tonight!
Can you drink OK? Being dehydrated also makes me feel tighter. Allergies? Head cold? Humidity?

At the least you need to let your Surgeon's office know about the vomiting........vomiting is never good.
