pineapple juice, eh? Haven't heard that one but I'm adding it to my list! :) Thanks!

I have been stuck a few times. While it's not fun, for me, it's not as bad as I read others describe it.

Two things either happen when I get stuck. I can either coax it down with pineapple juice, or it comes back up. I don't have to deal with it for two long, either way. Having it come back (PBing) up is so completely unlike throwing up, and I don't think you'll get stuck enough times to where your PBing will cause you band slippage (If it's happening often, then worry).

If you do get stuck, be very careful with eating for a couple of days afterwards like mentioned previously. Your stomach could very well be pissed off from the whole event, and want you to take it easy for a bit. Lay off the hot and warm liquids for a day after you're done getting stuck or PBing. Cold drinks will help better with a swollen stomach. View all this as punishment for eating X, and don't do it again ;) .

I still get stuck all the time. It's not a big deal to me. I just go to the restroom, lean over and it comes right up. You will learn what foods you can't tolerate. I had my surgery (18) months ago and still can't eat beef of any kind, flour tortillas or bread. I have no problems with rice or Pasta. Everyone is different.

This might sound crazy but I jump. Last stuck was in a a fancy restaurant, I excused myself, walked to the bathroom, took the furthest one in the room and Jumped. It went down thank God.
