First two to three bites



Recommended Posts

I had a fill a week ago. Mostly Eating soft foods and started on solids too. Last night, I ate too fast , I"m sure and I was stuck, it took time but i finally threw up some food. After I threw up, I felt cool air going thru the band. It felt so cool. The full day today I was on liquids only. This evening I tried one small bite of soft fish and I feel stuck again. Not stuck like last night, but stuck. Don't know what I should do. Did my band slip? I really know that I need to eat slowly and chew lots. I know it is a learning curve but at the same time I am nervous if something is gone wrong with the band already. Before or after the fill, I find that the first two bites feel stuck as they go down, then it is okay. Is that normal. Should I be concerned? Thanks

First of relax, chances are your band is fine. I would suggest doing liquids for another 24 hours, then do mushies for 24 hours. Your band is swollen and irritated so best not to push it. I would also suggest a call to your doctor to let them know what happened, they are best to advise you.

It is a learning curve after every fill. You think you are eating small bits slowly, but the band tells you otherwise. Best of luck to you.
