    I was banded in belgium in Oct 2010 and have since lost over 5 stones. Since Christmas i am finding it very difficult to eat, I can manage cup a soups and (wait for it wotsits ) but anything else gives me that stuck feeling and i end up being sick. My last fill was in Feb 2011 and was only 1cc. Does anyone know why this has suddenly started?
