I dont think there's another poll like this and I'd like to hear what bandsters say about this!

I replied, I have been banded for almost 4 months and have only gotten stuck a couple of times. It's been awhile since the last time!

I said once a month. I've been banded since March and that's about right for me. Only when I'm dumb and try to eat things that I know probably won't work out. I'm learning.

I've been stuck a lot these past few days. I got a fill on Friday and Saturday I was fine and I haven't been able to keep anything down since. I managed Water this AM though, but I am still going to get a slight unfill this afternoon because I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything else down. I didn't sign up for the liquid-only diet.

I had a period of a couple of months where I was too tight and didn't want to admit it to myself. During that time, my weight loss pretty much skidded to a halt, and I got stuck every time I ate, often more than once in a meal. I finally got just .2cc removed and I've gotten stuck just ONCE since then and it was all my fault for eating the one thing I know beyond a shadow of a doubt will cause me to get stuck....soft bread. I ate a bite of a biscuit and it nearly killed me, LOL.

I just had a fill last Saturday and have been "stuck" about 3 times......learning curve. Need to chew more and slower. Not been so stuck that I've PB'd but it's hurt and I've had to stop eating. No more.....I will be paying attention. I get stuck on lunch meat mostly. bread really isn't a problem for me.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
