my thoughts on throwing up

[ready4mybodyback30 1]

(sorry if this was not the right place to post this, but i thought it fit here) i remember reading (before i got my band) that if you are doing what you should, u won't throw up.. & i only had my surgery in Nov, but 2 fills later i can honestly say i have only thrown up once & i know it was because i ate something i shouldn't have right after my 2nd fill. i know a few people that make themselves throw up when they feel something "stuck" & some that purposely eat what they shouldn't & then go throw it up.. i've also heard that if you are filled too tight you will throw up, but it seems those people then fear telling their dr. because they don't want to lose too much fluid.. am i right? are their other categories then these? i try hard to do what i should & i know i will have pain if i eat too quickly or my bites are too big, so i am working on that.. but i HATE throwing up or even the thought of it, so that motivates me not to push it, the fear of getting sick... so i really hope i don't ever start. is it normal to throw up with the band? or is it a bunch of bologna?? i want to know the truth! lol

All of the scenarios in which banded people throw up that you listed are true...but if you follow your diet and do what you are supposed to do, you shouldn't have a problem. I was too tight and threw up, so I had a liitle Fluid removed from my band. Sometimes I take a big bite and don't chew well enough, then I have problem...it can happen very easily and it a very real possibility with the band. well, good luck to you.
