Guest guest Posted July 27, 2000 Report Share Posted July 27, 2000 Hi , Another new member - re vomiting. Well with me, it comes up straight away. I have no control over it which makes for some very embarassing times. I must admit I'm a coward and have a " social diet " ie really soft foods and an " at home diet " not so soft foods. I really find it difficult to attempt solid food like raw vegiesand fruits like apples etc., meats (I only eat fish now) and bread (Oh how I miss it). But I hate the vomiting and used to worry about not introducing the solid food but I've lost 72 kgs in three years which is slow but for me, better than vomiting all the time. I've had several refills but at present have only 2.5mls in.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 Hi , I have had two slippages and haven't had my band replaced. Do they think you are leaking? If not I don't see why they would need to replace it. , my surgeon, just super stitched it in place the last time. He said if it went anywhere again the stomach would be going to. Try not to worry, easy said I know. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
