Sounds like restriction to me. But if you think that you are too tight, wait a few days, and see if you stil are that way. Karen

I would give it a couple more days. I haven't had a fill yet but according to the paper work I got it says that you should really treat a fill diet like the post op diet. Start off really slow with liquids and then slowly increase to solid foods.

Yea, that sounds about right. Be careful what and how you eat!

If you get stuck, that feeling will not go away!

That pressure your feeling can also exhibit itself as pain. Not to worry, just do as you were taught. This is where all those lessons they taught you come into place and begin to finally make sense.

Small bites and swallows, chew thoroughly, take your time between swallows (put the fork down and chew), don't drink with your meals, etc, etc.

You will also start to learn that certain foods are better than others, and perhaps (like me) that certain foods are on my "Do Not Eat" list.

I cannot tolerate Red meat, of any kind. Steak, hamburger, you name it. I keep trying, and keep getting into trouble.

Also, this feeling, perhaps now or perhaps with another small fill, will control your portion size at meals and throughout the day. And since your portion size is so small, it makes sense to get the protein first.

Long story short, as one gets into the "Green Zone", EVERYTHING starts to fall into place. It is a GREAT FEELING! Took me months to get there.

Thanks guys... I am loving having the band.
