I've been banded 5-1/2 weeks now & have yet to PB or slime (knock on wood). I'm sure it's only a matter of time, since I've only just started real solids & I have not had my 1st fill. But so far so good!

I have only PB'd twice and am going on a year. I have slimed a few times as well. All but one of those episodes was from fast food or deli chicken! The kind that comes with the salads, all grilled and low-fat. The sliming was not fun but it wasn't terrible either, gross, but oh well. The PB was small and not as bad as what I had expected. The other PB was after my last fill. I underestimated my swelling and got a very soft tender piece of cauliflower stuck. I had to wretch 3 times to dislodge it. Go figure. Bottom line is that PB's are a part of the learning curve as you reach good restriction and learn your boundaries. Some people are naturally good at chewing really well and taking tiny bites and eating slow, but most of us have to learn through trial and error.

I was banded 4 weeks ago today and am still not clear on what it actually means to PB or what it really is. Obviously I have not had the problem yet but imagine I will.
