I was scarfing down my Breakfast of

1 slice of wheat bread

1 egg and 1 egg white

1 sausage

and it was so yummy that I guess I didnt chew properly or something and STUCK . It was only there for about maybe 2-3 mins.. but it was the longest 2 minuites ever.

I guess my band was reminding me it was there.

Just happened to me today. I was having an egg with whole wheat toast and I don't think I chewed the toast throroughly. It really hurt for a while but I'm ok, no pain now, just taking it easy. I guess that 1cc made a difference! I hope you are feeling better.

Being stuck is definitely no fun!!!! Sorry you had to experience that :) Glad it only lasted a couple minutes though! I had a 3 hour incident once and thought I was going to die!

Oh then make sure you eat slowly and chew thoroughly. I was able to eat plain bread but since my second fill I decided to I was a bit afraid to try that. So I made well done toast so it was hard... wasn't thinking and gobbled my food. Chew chew chew and you should be fine.

My doc told me no Pasta or breads for 6 months because of that very issue. I guess he wants me to get use to chewing first. He said if anything is going to get stuck it's bread and pasta. Scary. I don't have any restriction yet either. Only 2 weeks out of surgery.

      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.
