discouraged.....had my lapband 9-24-09, have only lost 20 pounds. I have had 3 fills of 1/2 cc each, still eating as much as before lapband. The np said she is too nervous to add too much fluid since i had a problem the first month after surgery with swallowing. I am so excited for all the progress you are all making...anyone else had this problem with not being filled except for 1-1/2 cc in 5 months.

To my knowledge i was not filled at all during surgery, the food gets stuck in my throat, not my stomach. It is right under my chin area that is the problem. Thanks for all of your help.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? I was banded 9-24, having 1st fill next week. If i eat anything except puree foods, it gets stuck in my throat...scarey. I had thought it originally was maybe from surgery and my throat swollen, but it has now been almost a month. Last night tried a piece of haddock, the second i swallow it gets stuck in my throat, ended up throwing up. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Thanks for all of your information, you are all the best!
