Does everyone Throw up?
wannabefit replied to Wheeler5051's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have had problems with throwing up on and off since being banded in June 09. Most people keep going to their doctor to have Fluid put in their bands, but I have had to have fluid taken out. After having fluid taken out, I would be okay for a while and then eventually, I would begin throwing up again...then I began having problems with aspirating at night. Not a good thing at all. I just had a upper GI last Friday and found out I do have a slip... I am having surgery on this Friday to hopefully have it repaired (there is a slight chance I will have to have it removed) I hope that it can just be repaired. Even though I have had some problems, I am really happy with my band and the results I have had. I have lost over 100 lbs. and I would like to lose a few more. You need to tell your friend that throwing up is a sign that something is not right. She is either too tight or has a slip...she needs to see her doctor! Good luck to you! -
I have been playing around with the same 5 lbs. for a couple of months now...I weigh 218 this morning.

Update on my progress....I have been banded for a little over a year now. I am very pleased with my weight loss...still have a long way to go, but I'm getting there! When I began my journey I weighed 337 lbs. My current weight is 233 lbs. Unfortunately, 233 lbs. would still be considered a "BEFORE" weight! haha! So...I will continue my long journey. My oldest son got engaged this summer, and we will be having a wedding next summer! So, I have about 11 months to try to get some more weight off and try to look as good as possible before the wedding! Wish me luck!
