Try papaya enzyme. Also, you shouldn't be eating normal food if you're stuck. Most people stick to liquids for a day or so to let things calm down as a stuck episode can really irritate your stomach/pouch.

Reverie - I got stuck but was not too bad, just relaxed, meditated :rolleyes:, convinced that stubborn piece of broccoli to go down...

Entire episode lasted maybe 3 min. No vomiting, BPing. A lot of tiny burps and little slimming.

Question for the future (hope never again) Should I switch to liquids for a day no mater how mild the stuck episode is?

THX for advise!!

Liquids probably wouldn't hurt for a day or two. I had a bad episode last night with pork & have to go easy today. Just do what your body tells you to do. We're all quite different.cool.gif

Maybe you could try exercising... I seem to be able to get "unstuck" if I take a brisk walk. I would quit eating anything until it was unstuck, but I can not drink a drop when I'm stuck, it comes righ back up. Home someones advice works for you. I hate being stuck! Good Luck!

It is common for your stomach to get swollen after a stuck episode...That is why you may feel that the food is still there even though it has passed...Since I often get stuck (due to being stressed and thus being too tight) I will consume liquids for a day or 2 after to help the swelling go down.... ;)

I doubt that you are still stuck you are probably swollen if you ate it last night. Dont keep putting food in there drink liquids for a few days.

In my mom's support group a few of the people have suggested pineapple juice to help things that are stuck go down. Something about the enzymes in the juice that helps break up the food.< /p>

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
