Did you recently have a fill? If not, I'd get into the surgeon ASAP to make sure you don't have a slip.

In the meantime, I'd try cream Soups, pudding, Jello, etc. Pretty much go back to the full liquids and/or mushies diet.

Really though...do get into your surgeon as soon as you can.

2 years out and you have never experienced this before ?

Scrambled eggs....is this only happening in the morning?

After 2 years, you should know yourself and your band well enough to understand what is going on.

If this just popped up out of nowhere, after 2 years of normality, then yes, you have a problem.

Also, thinking about myself only......how would I gain 20 lbs if I can't keep anything down?

If it was me, I know the answer, and it would not be a slipped band. But that's just me cause I know myself and my habits.

In your case, if you don't know what's happening, contact your Dr ASAP.

A weight gain of something like 20lbs could actually make the band tighter again if u have put on visceral fat around your tummy, the same goes if u lose weight the band will often loosen .. i would contact your doctor but just onto liquids for a few days too.

      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.
