Currently I have 5cc in my band, I think it might be to much because I do vomit often. My throat feels sore today at the base of my neck. Wondering if that's the case or if I'm just having tighter days more often? Just don't want to have my band slip.

Vomiting is nothing to play around with, go back to dr. The sore throat maybe stick to liquids for a few days. For me the weather (cold mostly) makes my band tight in am. I saw suggestions here, to drink something hot, I started drinking hot Water with a little lemon in it. Or heat up a cup of almond milk and a splash of coffee for Breakfast.

Even after 6 years, I still have trouble, so don't beat yourself over the head. Eventually you will find a rhythm to the eating and drinking, and a reminder no big bites

good luck

Your band is probably just a little to full, Have you dr. Remove a very small amount & see if that helps. If it still does it remove a tad more. Better that than having a slip. That is what happened to me & Dr. Said give it a few more days for my band to a just & boy was that a mistake. Ended up having to have band completely emptied for about 4 months because of slight slip,am having it slowly filled again now. I'm almost 4 years post op

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
