Tight in the morning



Recommended Posts

Well, I knew there was a reason I needed to take the time to come on this forum. I only started to notice lately that I have a hard time eating in the morning. I am often hungry in the morning depending on what I ate the night before. I am going to have my second fill on Saturday.

I wanted this second fill so badly and now I am sorry. I am so tight in the morning, and if I eat anything in the morning I am in trouble all day long. after having a small piece of zucchinni bread after a morning cup of tea I knew I made a mistake. I have been throwing up all day today even water.... I will be calling the doctor first thing in the morning.

The same thing happens to me. I am very tight in the morning and just have a cup of coffee. I used to try and eat but I will stay stuck by the time I get to work and it is so uncomfortable. Now I know that I will not be able to eat anything until after 2:00 p.m.

Mine is very bad in the morning. I can barely drink Water and I've gotten sick on milk. My friend suggested it may have something to do with being horizontal at night and vertical during the day. I'm starting to think that has something to do with it because I was sick one day about a week ago and took a three hour nap - dinner was then impossible. I don't know exactly what the band looks like but could it smoosh a little while we are lying down? I know I wasn't dehydrated because I'm very careful with that part.

I'm to the point where I'm very tight in the mornings. I usually have Carnation Instant Breakfast. That way i at least get some good Protein in. By lunchtime I can eat food but I get full pretty fast and then by dinnertime I can eat alot more.

for those with bands too tight in the morning, as soon as your feet hits the floor start drinking Water. Might take a couple of glasses but it will help and also thin out the mucus. This is what I was told to do and it works.

I was told warm/hot tea helps alleviate the tightness in throat in the morning. If nothing else, it sure feels soothing.

I am definitely tighter in the morning and looser at night. I usually have a cup of milk and a big glass of Water in the morning. I get hungrier around 11:00 and then have lunch. I am good until around 5:00 and then I get really hungry. This is not good because I am looser and can eat a lot more. I have lost between 75 and 80 pounds in 18 months and have not even come close to gaining any weight back, but my weight loss has really slowed. I really want to lose the rest of the weight so I am going to get a fill tomorrow and just accept the fact that I am going to be pretty tight in the morning. I have 5.5 in my 10 band and I am hoping 6 will be the magic number. I just need more restriction at night!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
