I had my band put in about 5 years ago since then I have had 2 little boys and got derailed. Anyways since my last child I have noticed that I have trouble eating first thing in the morning and then once it gets warmer though out the day it gets even harder. I might take 3 or 4 bites and feel like poop. It really doesn't matter if its a scrambled egg of baked chicken I end up feeling like crap. How ever once it starts to cool off I have no problems eating normal stuff. Anyone have this problem ?

A friend said she had this problem. She said what she did was about 30 minutes before dinner, she'd take a bite or two of something, and then by dinner, she was able to eat. I'm sorry--hope this helps!

I'm a fellow bander who shares the problem of not being able to eat in the a.m.

coffee or tea seems ok. By the afternoon, if I can try to get a little lite lunch in, (Soup. Small salad etc)

I'm better. If I wait, the first food has to be easy on my stomach.... Once I feel more open, I'm ok for dinner.... I tend to eat early

Just another major adjustment I made to my life to make it work at a much lighter weight. Not always convenient, but way better than any day I had at 250+ lbs!

I am trying to figure out if its because I have put on weight in the last 2 years due to my last pregnancy and some issues with the IUD hormones that have cleared up since i had it removed or if this will be my new normal. I have tried even eating easy foods in the day time and it just sucks. It is nice to know I am not alone and I just have to keep looking for something that will work for me.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
