Please explain, why can I barely eat anything for bfast and lunch?

For dinner, almost anything goes. It starts over every day. I know some of it has to do with sinus drainage but what explains the rest?

I find that strange too, but have no idea why. For me it varies from day to day moreso than morning to night. Some days I can eat a whole salad for lunch with very little problems, while others I can't even look at the salad without feeling sick. Its very odd!

My doctor advised me to have only liquids for Breakfast, because the band tightens during the night. It loosens up during the day. So far I do not have any restriction so I have not had that happen to me yet.

same with me. I can't eat anything most of the day and then come supper time, I can eat most anything I want. The weird thing is that not always the case. I just have to try really small bites, to see if things are gonna go down. Even then, I am restricted in the quantity. I may be eating 1/2 C. sometimes a whole.

I believe I have figured out why I can't get hardly anything down most of the day, especially in the mornings. For some reason and this is gross, I think I have a build-up of drainage, that clogs up around my band. I have found that if I'm drink a little bit of something warm first thing in the morning and then sip Water the rest of the day, I will eventually be able to get solids down. Anyone else with that problem?

It is very typical to have difficulty eating in the morning, as the band is usually at its tightest then. Drinking something warm helps. Also drinking Water may also work. It takes awhile to get used to the band. Listen to your body, and adjust your eating schedule accordingly. Just be sure to take in the necessary nutrition.

I had a fill the first of May and everything was OK. Able to eat a reasonable amount. I broke my ankle May 20 and was confined to wheelchair, had surgery and had to sit around a lot. The longer I was down the harder it became to eat. I'm now lucky to eat in the late afternoon and evening. My fill doctor was trying to tell me that I had probably stretched my esophagus. No way. I can't eat that much. I'm thinking I may need some fill taken out but he wants to do a barium swallow first (more money that I don't have). I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I'll print these comments and show them to him and hope he'll just take some fill out.
