I am sorry I don't know the answer to your question other than that I was told it would really hurt. BUT I am always asked when I go in for a fill if I have any nighttime coughing which can be a sign that you are too tight. ****I noticed you posted earlier about feeling like you now only eat when you are hungry and that you were feeling pretty good about things- did something happen since then? Did you recently have a fill?

My band slipped and it was really severe pain after eating anything and then turned into vomitting, so I was on liquids until I could get in to get it fixed.

Two weeks ago I had a violent spell of vommitting and my band slipped from that. The next day I woke up feeling starving, a starving feeling I have not felt since before my surgery. I knew something was wrong, and throughout the day I felt as if I could eat anything, I didn't do it, but I certainly could have. I felt really uncomfortable but no major pain. Than I started throwing up again and ever since than I had major pain in my chest and under my ribs. I was miserable. I had to have an upper GI and an EGD to determine if my band had slipped. My surgery is tuesday to reposition my band.

If you think there is something wrong, definitely go check it out.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
