Last night I was eating dinner...pork chops and mashed potatoes. I did really well for the first few bites, so I decided to have a little more. BIG mistake! I started getting the feeling that I was too full. It was almost like the feeling where you feel like something is stuck...but if you wait it out it'll pass. No pain, just some burping and a little uncomfortable. 3 hrs later I had a sugar free Popsicle and had trouble getting it down. I drank some liquid and threw that up along with the Popsicle. I thought that would make me feel better, but this morning I still can't even keep liquids down. I'm afraid to call the Dr. Because I don't want them to take any Fluid out of my band or stick a tube down my throat. My band is NOT too tight. I'm only on 2nd fill and have been doing very well with it for weeks now. Anyone know what might be going on?

I can't keep liquids down, so I think I'm gonna call the Dr. Thanks, Missy!

Hmmm. Pork is a dry meat and one I know I stay away from. I've never figured out how to cook pork chops so they stay moist.

calling the doctor is the best thing to do and early so they don't have to take it out I didn't and its a slow recovery to get the fills back to green.

They got me right into the Dr. Office and removed half of the Fluid from my band. I feel like a new person!

      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.
