It almost sounds like you either took too large of a bite or ate something to fast...maybe?? Are you eating too much? Does it happen when you are drinking? Sometimes if my drinks are too big and fast i get pressure in my chest... hard to say, without a little bit more info...sorry

If it's after you eat (up to 3 hours), it could be food sitting in your esophagus waiting for it's turn to go through the band. Just eat smaller amounts. If it's not food related, go see your doctor and describe it because they'll probably able to pinpoint it a lot faster because they've go the MD.

Silly question....Have you eaten avacodos before? I love them, but every time I eat them, i get that feeling you're talking about. The discomfort isn't worth it to me. :(

I get that all the time and it is heart burn. Best to do 2 days of mushies & liquids and this can reset your band and calm things down. Kind of like a computer reboot :). Also I chew on Gelisul they work great too! Good luck!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
