Well thanks for commenting:thumbup: on my post! It went well, I ate a small amount before going to the Dr. and on the drive over it came up, I was so frustrated and then I got on the scales and I was 3 lbs up!! The Dr. came in and we talked, this has gone on since my last fill and got more severe on my cruise! He put me under the exray and saw the swelling around my port and band immediately! The upchucking had caused irritation and swelling causing the band to tighten! So he removed .04ccs and then I had liquids for 48 hours, then I ate and I was so full and the food stayed down! How wonderful, I feel satisfied too.

I did not know it, but with a too tight band, you will NOT lose weight, when you throw up, you eat more to try and get something to go in and it may be all the wrong things!

I am checking out the recipes you have and going to try them now that I can eat again! We do have to learn to live this life after the LAP-BAND?! I am going back to the Gym next week too.
