i got a 2 cc fill 17 days ago, bringing me to a total of 4 ccs in a 10 cc band and i find myself getting stuck nearly every day.

 

things that go down okay:

soft pieces of beef jerky (the dry stuff doesnt go down well even if chewed like crazy)

egg salad

tuna salad

cottage cheese

bagel chips (trying to stay away from these. too many carbs)

chocolate (again trying to steer clear of this but its been tough this week as its my girly week and the chocolate helps my mood and cramps)

shrimp

cheese

cashews and walnuts

 

turkey and chicken and beef dont go down well. even ground turkey breast, cooked and mashed into tiny pieces in gravy....yeah even the smallest most well chewed bite gets stuck. steamed summer squash gets stuck.

string cheese gets stuck. most solids get stuck. i think i might be a bit too tight? ive gained a few pounds due to only being able to eat soft/slider foods.

my surgeon thinks ill need a fill in a week or two. i think thats possibly the worst idea ever. i cant imagine being even tighter.

 

does this sound like a too-tight band?
