Eviees mommy

I was banded in March of this year. I have lost 56 lbs but I have had a lot of trouble ever since.
 
Problems I have are pain where my port is. Not to bad more irritating then anything but it does hurt. This is the more minor problem.
 
The major problems I have are with eating. It started out with carbonated drinks. KILLED ME 100 times over with only one drink. Ok so I learned not to even try those. Problem solved!
 
Pasta's and bread's are another thing I learned early on not to eat. Eating these or and trying to drink carbonated drinks would make my chest hurt soooooo kinda like right after be banded and having all that gas inside. Or what I call it is "like having what I would think a heart attack feels like". It is the worst pain!
 
But now as in the last three to four months I have been having trouble eating just about anything. I used to be able to eat bananas after being banded and now I can't eat those along with tons of other things some you wouldnt even think would bother you like yogurt!
 
Day to day is different but I never know what is going to kill me and the only thing I can do when it starts hurting that bad is to make myself throw up. For the last four months I have been throwing up alot so therefore I am hungry alot and will eat whatever wont hurt me and it isnt always healthy. My husband says I have "medically induced bulimia".
 
Anyways I have mentioned this to my Doctor but not to the full extent only because I want so bad to loose this weight and the one time I semi told him, he said that I didnt need to be injected for awhile. I want my injections. I have only had four and I am no where near full. I go see my Doctor this Wedensday and intend to tell him EVERYTHING as I can not stand this anymore but was wondering in the mean time if anybody knows whats going on or something I can do.
 
Thank you!

Well it has been 12 days since I was banded. Yesterday was a bit hard. I was hurting really bad yesterday, where the port is. Is it supposed to still be hurting this bad??? Also My doc told me to keep the port cover at all times (i still have staples in) but the bandages are killing my skin. Maybe thats why it hurts so bad???
 
Yesterday was my family bbq and it went great. That morning honestly being "the fat girl" I am I was sad that I would not be eating EVERYTHING that was there. I was sad because I was making homemade cupcakes and mac n cheese to take but that I would not be able to eat them. But once I got there and had everyone asking me about my surgery and how I was feeling, they couldnt believe how much weight I had already lost it made me feel so much better. So instead of eating all the bad crap that was there I ate grilled chicken and it was yummy. And this morning I felt even better when I got on the scale and im down13 lbs!!!!

Six day out and Im kinda feeling worst. I feel as I did the day I got out of surgery with not being able or at least feeling as I cant or am having trouble breathing. Is this normal? Ive thought about calling my dr but....
 
Today is the first day to be taking care of my daughter all alone since I was banded so maybe thats why I feel so bad????
 
On a happier note I did get on the scale this morning and im down 8lbs. Goodness if only I had the will power to be on a iquid diet maybe I wouldnt have had to get this done??? LOL JK I know I needed to get this. I needed to get this done so that I could have a long happy healthy life with my family. So that I could chase my daughter around the play ground when she starts walking. So that I could fianlly for once in my life be happy with myself. But this is no piece of cake. It is hard and I am just so thankful for all my family and friends who have helped out and I so happy that I have the site. It has really helped me.
 
Tomorrow I go in to have the staples removed so praying that will help with a little bit of the pain. And on to a soft food diet. Kinda scared about that though. This gas is killing me. LOL no really it is.
