I had my surgury 9/21/06 and at that time my weight was 358. I now weigh 280. I just had my third fill and now EVERYTHING I eat and half of what I drink causes pain that lasts an hour and a half or so.

what do you think is going on?

Are you PBing? Getting stuck? Or does it just HURT? Maybe you are eating too much - and it is just sitting there stretching your pouch...

PBing or stuck - yep - get an unfill.

If it just hurts - try reducing portion size to a quarter cup or a couple of bites. If it still hurts - see your doc.

Pain is your body warning you that something is wrong - and you should definitely listen to the warning.

Have you had an endoscope? Maybe you should.

Good Luck!

:help: As I said in my first post I had my third fill about 10 days ago. since then I have pain almost everytime I eat. (now always though) Today I had one (1) Doreito with salsa and I was in lots of pain (lots!!!) for around 45 minutes. I took Tums and got no releif. It then suddenly went away. I lost 4 Lbs this week and otherwise feel great. Any thoughts?

You are probably too tight. I just went through an ordeal and had a complete unfill. You should avoid spicy foods. Also, try three days of liquids to let any irritation unswell. If it still hurts, I completely agree that your body is telling you something. You might even be bleeding. It should not hurt to eat, if you are following "bandster rules."

Take care!!!

      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.
