Throwing Up All The Time, Making Me Tired At Work



Recommended Posts

I agree - that you must go for a un:clap2: fill, but - if you must vomit at work or anywhere you might try turning on the Water - that is what I have done when it became necessary - it is a distraction to the vomitting sound! Also, when people thought that i was crying because my eyes were watery fromm vomitting- i just said that i had allergies.

Jen and Collegeteacher? I hope you both have had a chance to go get an unfill. Not only is being over-filled dangerous, it is just plain miserable. I'm so sorry you both thought you should be that tight for the band to work.

The band is not surgically induced bulima.

Thank you for all the kind words, advice and support. I talked to my doctor and he said stress was triggering these complications. I also noticed with all this weight loss that I am not as restricted now, I can't eat like I did before the fill, but I am seeing how I can portion foods out. Only when I really make bad food choices do I have PB now. I still have loads of stress, but I am learning how to deal with it.

Stress will definately do it. I had to have an unfill during a particularly stressful time last year.

Glad you are feeling better!

HI MY NAME IS ANN, I HAD MY BAND 15 MONTHS AGO AS OF SATURDAY. I AGREE YOU DON'T WANT TO DO DAMAGE TO YOUR SYSTEM ESPECIALLY AROUND YOUR PORT. I HAD 3 FILLS AND 1 UNFILL MY UNFILL WAS LAST MARCH I HAD MY TONSILS TAKEN OUT LAST FEBRARY AND HAD A FILL DONE A MONTH LATER BOY THAT WAS NOT FUN I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN. BUT THEY DO PUT THE FILL BACK IN BUT HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MY STOMACH SETTLED DOWN. THE UNFILL IS NOTHING DOESN'T HURT AT ALL. I PERSONALLY THINK YOU SHOULD SAY SOMETHING TO YOUR DOCTOR THAT DID YOUR LAP-BAND SURGERY.

HUGS ANN BANDED 11/18/04:) :clap2:

I also have thrown up, because the band doesn't fix the emotional eating or the "it taste good" eating. I got fat because I ate after I was full, so it has been a hard thing trying to stop when the "full" feeling comes. This is something I'm still dealing with after two years.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
