Was the broccoli raw? I've not been able to tolerate broccoli unless it's a bit over cooked since I began to resume my "new normal" diet...

Sincerely sorry to read of your incident...hope you are feeling no ill effects.

Take good care...

Broccoli and cauliflower have been 2 of the worst for me about getting stuck. I suggest really making the broccoli tiny and smaller bites. I also sip a little Water to aid in rinsing the tiny balls down.

Poor thing! I can't eat any fiberous veggies ever! Even if they are cooked down to nothing :( I have to stick to green Beans (only french style) cooked carrots and peas :( Nothing else works for me...not even if i peel them

Even at 4+ years, I still have trouble with raw veggies! And yep, we do get that reminder to chew to smithereens when we have those stuck episodes don't we!?!?

      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.
