Will I ever be able to eat?



Recommended Posts

I will have my band a year aug 23rd. I have lost 102 pounds. Which is great. I just don't eat much at all or I throw it up..for example one chicken nugget. I am only able to eat one or two bites of food unless its stuff I shouldn't be eating. Like chips.. The last fill I had was in January. Is my band too tight or is this normal?

Wow, sounds a bit tight to me too. Have you tracked calories and Protein intake? I'd make notes and log your food intake for a week and take them to your surgeon to prove what is going on.

I will track them. I know right now it's minimal.

definitely doesn't sound normal. sounds like you're too tight. while breads and other doughy foods can be difficult to consume, you should be able to eat 2-3oz in one sitting, which is definitely more than a chicken nugget. speak to your surgeon asap. keeping yourself too tight can have long term complications.
