Stuck & Unfill

[NicVio 15]

So, my dumbass self just had a fill Tuesday, had great results since my March fill (lost 9lbs in 3weeks). So today I decide to juice for b/fast orange, apple, carrot, and a few strawberries... I have done this before and have had NO problems, none! Yeah well 3 sips in, BAM! STUCK like I have never been stuck before - was pb'ing, sliming, throwing up, u name it for a good 4 hours. Its Juice, ok. so I go to my Dr, & my nurse yells at me <lol> too much Fiber, too much in the orange, too close to the last fill... now she took Fluid out & im instructed to s ay on liquids for 2-3 days, but NO juiced drinks Blah! Mind you, I have about 10 oranges up for grabs, anyone want em? lol Has anyone had a problem like this before?

Thanks for the heads up. I'm one week out of surgery and I was going to drink some fresh fruit juice. My niece has juicer, and she just spent 4 hours juicing up fruits and veggies. I will be careful after reading your post. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry to hear that you got sick. When I have a fill my doctor has me on liquids (protein shakes) for 3 days, then mushies for 3 days and then back to my regular diet. He feels the band has to adjust to the new fill and your stomach needs to rest. I have never had any thing except for being stuck because I ate too fast or too much. They were my fault and I knew it before the stuck feeling.

Feel better.

Usually on my fill day, I'm told to eat mushies that day and the following up to dinner time, for dinner ok to start reg food. This is the 1st time since 2011 that I was put on liquids by the Dr. though.

I was told from the beginning to stay away from oranges, grapefruit and any other fiberous fruit.< /p>

I've heard a lot of ppl have trouble with banana's too.

[NicVio 15]

Yes!!! I used to love bananas now I can't even smell them, makes me sick. The first time I tried one after I was banded I wanted to die!!!

Remember what you can see through! That is Clear Liquids, not heavy juice, sorry for the lecture! You can see through apple juice, not orange, banana, strawberry. In fact, there are few juices that you can see through, maybe cherry. Sorry for your pain, and unfill. Karen

I never had a prob before, my dr encourages juicing bc we don't get enough veggies & fruits in our (little) diet lol. Just have to remember to hold off juicing so close to a fill. I love love juicing. But I will never ever make this mistake again... Ever
