I've actually not had so much as a cold since before banding, but I've been concerned about it. You might want to ask your surgeon for an antiemetic prescription to have on hand, just in case. Kind of like motion sickness remedies... it won't actually fix the problem, but it can help keep the gorge down.
Eat what you can. When you're sick, staying hydrated is number one. It won't hurt you to go a day or two without food (or longer, but let's say a day or two) as long as you can keep fluids down. If you can't, you should probably seek IV fluids.
