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!

      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.
