Absolutely! Sometimes if I eat to fast, I will get stuck and it's very painful. I had a couple days where I threw up most of the day; then on Thanksgiving it was as though I could eat anything and no problems at all. Every day is unchartered territory, and I have no idea how it's going to go. I'm trying to eat slowly and with small bites so that some continuity will come about.

Yes, even after 3 years, I stil have times that food just won't go down, and doesn't appeal to me. I am not sure what to tell you, exept, it is pretty normal and to wish you well. Karen

Oh yes... I am almost 2 years post op and some days I have trouble getting in all my food and other days I have no problems. One day I can eat chicken and the next day it wants to come back up. Same with several other things as well. My band is very finicky.

There are many factors that effect the band, stress, hydration, sinuses, tom just to name a few. The band is like a toddler you never know what each day will bring....

Take each day as a new journey and go with the flow (pun intended) it changes sometimes for everyone.

      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.
