    Seriously frustrated with food

    Thank you all so much for the advice. A big reason I was putting off going to the dr was because I did not want to tell him I needed an unfill, but I can't live like this anymore. I did not sign up to be unhealthy. Congrats to you all for taking the big step on having this surgery as well. I wish you all the best of luck! Thanks again!
  4. I was banded on May 14 2010 and since them I've lost a little over 100lbs which I am extremely happy with. I've lost count on the number of fills I've had but I have not had one in maybe 4 months. After I had my last fill the variety of foods in which I could eat became very slim and they continue to lessen as time passes. I can no longer eat any kind of meat, fish, poultry in fact the only thing that gives me no discomfort what so ever is popcorn which I find off. I've been surviving off of soups, like a half cup or ao and sometimes can't even get that down. Everything gets stuck in the mornings it's worse and I can't burp. I feel a burp coming on and then it just gets stuck in my throat. I don't know what to do. And at times I regret what I've donto myself but then I think of not having to shop in the plus size section and think maybe I can live off liquids the rest of my life:( my next drs appt is this coming Tuesday and I'm hoping after I tell him all this he'll take some fluid out of my band if that's the problem. Has anyone else experienced this? I just want to live a normal life. Eating is not something I look forward to at all. I just feel sad and unhealthy
  5. I have my band for a year now and have lost 110lbs. My last fill was about 2 months ago. Just recently I've noticed a change. I can't really eat a variety of things soup, baked potato, rice cakes, popcorn, are about the only things that stay down. I knew going into this that I would have to stay away from certain foods but all meats alot of fruits and vegetables just don't stay down. And after I've eaten I feel the need to burp but nothing comes out. I just have this built up sensation in my throat. Haven't been able to get in to see the Dr. but I'm seriously frustrated. I feel like only surviving off these foods is not that healthy for me. I've told my Dr. that each time I've been filled the variety of foods in which I can eat lessens but the only thing he ever asks is if I can eat a half cup, and yes I can but only soups and it isn't that comfortable. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
