I had my crap band for 6 years. food stuck all the time. Always in pain. Got my sleeve on Feb 25,... It's like night and day. It's so nice to have the pressure in the middle of your chest relieved.

I have the sleeve and I throw up a lot.. Sometimes it hurts like something is stuck (even if it's just a shake) and I vomit and everything is fine ..

I had the lapband for 5 years, each year the throwing up got worse. I was so worried I would have esphogial scarring and I was very lucky to get the lapband loosened until my surgery. After my sleeve I havent had any issues of throwing up, my acid reflux is gone! After surgery I did experince some nausea for the 1st day but it got better and I was so happy.

Each of us is different after surgery wishing you the very best!

Yup I even spent the day in the hospital having tests and they found nothing wrong. He told me stick to just shakes for another week, even though I said shakes do it too not just yogurt and eggs and soup!!

I always thought it was ONLY me with problems with the band until I came here, my doctor never ever mention that there were others, he made me feel like a failure.

I had the band for 6 years and food would get stuck and I would throw up. I was revised to the band and I have that same stuck feeling in my chest and I still vomit. Nothing has changed as far as that goes.

I had the band for 5 years, the stuck/vomit cycle got worse every year. My sleeve was done August 2013 and I have not vomited even one time since then. It's wonderful! No stuck, chest pressure feeling, just regular full feeling like before band. Occasionally I will eat too much or something that does not agree with my tummy and I will feel sick, nauseous and hot for a bit. It's weird, but it passes in about 15 minuets.

I think I lost most of my weight with the lapband due to bulemia. Thru up almost everyday. It was so easy. I just bent over and up would come whatever I just ate.

Had sleeve revision last July (8 mths ago) and I've thrown up twice (my fault. Ate too much). Sometimes I actually MISS easily throwing up. Now it's much, much harder. If I overeat, I just hafta ride it out. It won't come up as easily as it used to.

16 lbs from goal. Very happy with my sleeve. Easily maintaining for about 4 mths.

Good luck! I think ull be happy with the revision...

Thanks for being so honest. I think my success with the band was due to the same reason. I'm 4 days post-op now and I'm nervous yet excited about this new journey.

      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.
