you shouldnt be throwing up is what i know of being a bander.

i have read if one eats too fast or too big of bite, that they could have issues..

congrats on the loss so far as that is just fantastic...i have been banded 2 1/2 yrs and not thrown up yet...if you are concerned or have thrown up, you need to discuss with your doctor..they are the best ones to answer these type questions,,

Sorry that you keep throwing up. I have had mine for over 3 years and from time to time I still can throw up. One day I can eat something and then the next it doesn't work so well. Weather can affect me, humidity, heat and such. You might be banded to tight if you can't eat anything without it coming back up.

Eating slow really does help, I try to avoid distraction so I can chew my food well and take small bites.

Good luck to you.

      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.
