signs of slippage

[kimmy215 0]

I am not sure if I have a problem or not but wanted to know how you tell if your band slips? The other day I tried to eat a Healthy Choice chicken and rice meal which made me very sick. I threw it up then and even one hour later threw up more. Since then, almost everything I eat has been a little hard to get down. I really don't think I slipped my band but wanted to know what the signs and symptoms are if it ever happened. Thanks...

Not sure I can be of much help, but just wondered--did you go back to liquids for 24 hrs. following the throwing up episode? If not it sometimes creates an evil pattern, of irritating the stomach each time you eat. Maybe go liquids & mushies, and ease back to a normal diet, let your tummy have some down time. Hope it all works out for you!!!

I have had to throw up due to Migraines and every time that happens, I go to liquids or full liquids for at least a day...the swelling caused by the event of throwing up will make it difficult to eat hard, solid food. Try that, and see if after a day or so, you can eat mushie food, then move to your normal diet.
