Is this the band?



Recommended Posts

So I hadn’t eating in over 8 hours and then all of a sudden I woke up from sleeping this AM coughing and then dry heaved once and then again when I made it to the bathroom. Now the weather has been pretty bad here going from hot to cold. I know my sinuses are stuffed and draining. Before the band I had this problem of sinuses draining and dry heaving. But I must admit I also ate something I shouldn’t have last night at dinner. I had a band fill 4 days ago today. I can keep fluids down and I am working on a yogurt right now which is going okay.. I’m just wondering if my band could be too tight or if this whole thing is my sinuses.

Also off note I am due to start my period today and I always notice I am tighter during that time.

It's probably the combo of weather changes, sinuses, TOM and poor food choice.

Take it easy today and try drinking something warm (tea, coffee or even warm Water with lemon) before your meals..especially Breakfast. The warm liquids help to clear mucus and relax your band just a tad.

If you find you need to drink the warm stuff WITH your food for ALL meals, not just Breakfast, to let it go down, you might indeed be too tight.

hope this helps

I am most def. tighter in the A.M and have trouble with almost anything for breakfast. A drink is usually required then but lunch and dinner I am okay.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
