I just had all the fluid taken out of my band because i got food stuck at the band. Last night I was trying to eat meat loaf and it all came back up. What the heck is up with this? Hamburger is a soft food!

Why is it so bad to drink carbonated beverages with the lap band?

Help! Six months post op and not losing weight!
ToshaLarkins posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I had lap band surgery six months ago and have not lost any weight. It is frustrating I don't feel like I'm eating any less than I did before surgery. In fact they got my band so tight that I got food stuck there and they had to take all the Fluid out and I have to start all over again. I don't know if I even want to. Any suggestions? -

Dear Fullercor, I have never heard of sous vide cooking method. What is it? And what is a Anova immersion circulator?

It seems weird why some foods will stay down while others will not. I never know what is going to come back up and I don't like that. Trying really hard to not be disappointed in my decision to have the surgery.

I've been mostly eating protein only. I don't like vegetables very much. Is it important to eat veggies? I eat a little fruit, bust mostly just fish and chicken; which I'm getting sick of. The only weight I've lost is during the all liquid diet and when food go stuck and I was throwing up for 5 days. I guess I'm having a hard time finding out when I'm in the green zone. -

I listened to the utube videos and they were very helpful. Thanks. There was definitely info. in there that my doctor has not discussed with me. Thanks again, gives me hope to carry on! -

So what exactly are the eating rules? Should I be eating a high protein diet only? There is so much conflicting information out there I'm really confused. I spent a lot of money on this surgery and want it to be a success. -

sorry I'm confusing you. I guess what I'm saying is even though I was supposedly in the green spot I was eating way more than 3 to 4 ounces of food. I don't know why food got stuck at my band. I was eating normally then all of a sudden one day I couldn't keep anything down. -

I have had four fills and it obviously was too tight, however I did not ever feel any restriction. I had to eat slower, but could still eat just as much. Just don't get it!
