I was banded a month ago and I ate a spoonfuls of chili and i have been suffering all day....I go see the doc tomorrow and that is my number one question..MY back pain is mid back and i have rumblings also in the lowee abdomen I cannot belch or let go of gas...I feel like I have entrapped something and the whole area is just all jammed up(so to speak),,, I have had Water but nothing else since the chili earlier....

What confuses me is that I had chili 2 days before that and not an issue...i have been keeping a food journal and when I get this back pain*sometimes chest pain also...I have had this pain mainly in the mornings, but yesterday it was dinner..

I am thinking this is normal....but I plan to ask doc

i have to admit, as much as i love chilli, and ate heaps of it before hand, that i had some digestive problems after surgery when i ate it. i had a lot of wind pain and it stayed with me for days.

Perhaps the Mexican meal was a tad too much for you?? i hope that it settled down real soon without anymore complications.

im having chilli now again... im post op 2 months coming up this week. im not having a lot but about a 1/4 teas with some meals.

      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.
