OMG after 9 months I had my first episode of getting food stuck, I thought I would die. Was eating chicken and as soon as I swalloed I knew I was in trouble. Drinking made it worse. I tried to throw up but only saliva came up. I was done eating the rest of the night. I hope I didnt damage my band. Anyone else have this happen?

No your band is fine. I've had that happen a couple times and like you, never threw it up. I get this huge lump in my throat and my chest feels like there's a bag of bricks on it. I almost want to pound my own chest to ease it but it doesn't help. I then start sliming big time (gross!)

I'm sure your band is fine :)

I have issues with meat and fish. Last night ,for the umptieth time i had difficulties. i chewed a small piece of chicken ... it was moist. Like before i had awful pain and the feeling that i wanted to burp it all back up but so far ive never salivated or had the slime. Im so glad its not got that far. I cooked some lamb chops in the slow cooker two days ago, couldnt eat them either so this morning ive minced the meat down and added it to a lot more liquid. A Soup base, ive also added chick peas and some spices as well. it seems that im not able to eat meat yet... not as i would like to. i havent had a fill yet. i have my first fill on the 7th may

Hey, I am on my second week and have been eating purée chicken, egg salad with no issues. Just curious to know what week you are on? On my 3rd week I was told soft food was the next step then chicken and fish the 4th week. Are we on the same plan?

      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.
