    Why am I so restricted

    Thanks to everyone for responding, I really appreciate hearing from everyone that has gone through this situation. My wife has been forcing me to eat according to the foods and amounts laid out by the doctor, so I don't go into starvation mode. I eat really slow, and never finish my 4 oz in the half hour, so by that point I just stop. I hope the swelling goes down soon because even with the smallest amount of food I start hiccuping and I am eating very slow. I wish I had a taste a desire for food and I wish I felt something when I eat. I will give it more time. The Doctor did not mention my weight loss. I see him for a fill on Feb. 1st, but there is no way I am going to let him fill me if I am not even hungry.
  4. Hello, I received the Realize band on December 23rd, and of course it has no fill right now. At this time I have lost 60lbs., which is great but I think there is a problem. Since the surgery my stomach always feels full. I have no hunger or desire to eat. Right now my diet is supposed to consist of mushies, but I don't want to eat. When I do eat there is no sensation that I am getting full or satisfied probably because I feel full already. This does not change as the day goes on. While most people here might desire to feel full, the lap band is not supposed to work this way. The doctor claims it is because there is swelling still, but I am not so sure. Also want to add I get a runny nose and hiccups quite a bit now. I am also having throat pain, and some sharp pains every once in a while near my abdomin. Has anyone had this problem? Could the band just be too tight for me?
