How often do you get your food stuck?

[Oregondaisy 2,021]

I am ready to tear out my hair. I am afraid to get another fill, because food sticks regularly. I do everything I am told to do. Today my tuna ( no bread) got stuck. I have heard about a first bite syndrome, where things get stuck at first, then it's fine. Sometimes a few days will go by and nothing gets stuck, and then all of a sudden, everything I try to eat gets stuck.<br /> <br /> <br /> The worse part of this whole thing is I am not losing weight. I exercise, don't drink with meals, count calories yada yada yada. I am going next Monday to have a resting metobolic test taken. <br /> <br /> Like I said, I am really afraid to get another fill with the way food gets stuck, but I am sick to death of not losing.<img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/help.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Help" smilieid="256" class="inlineimg" />

Really stuck as in sliming stuck, not very often but I am paranoid about it happening. Like I'm on teaching rounds at the moment, and I just though it would be just my luck to have a major episode in a staffroom full of people I dont know. So I took Soup for lunch and I barely ate that. If in doubt I just dont eat. So I think its probably happened as rarely as it has becuase I"m super duper careful about it.

A bit uncomfortable stuck, I get that quite a lot, I do tend to suffer from first bite syndrome. But its nothing I cant fix just by putting down the fork for 5 minutes, nobody I was eating with would know it was happening.

PBing type stuck, twice in 18 months.

If I was having problems with food sticking there is no way on earth I'd have another fill. I just couldnt live with eating always being difficult. But that's just me.

Do you know why that first bite syndrome happens? It makes no sense to me.

Tonight I ate the two things I couldn't eat yesterday because they got stuck. Tonight I ate them with no problem. I wish I could make sense out of this band!

The band is very random. Yesterday I ate 1 bite of food because the one time I tried to eat, I ended up sliming over it. Of course, I also drank 1 drink of Protein shake because later in the day when I tried to drink one, I slimed over it too. Today I had some lobster bisque, white chicken meat with buffalo sauce, and chicken salad pan fried (faux melt) with a bit of cheddar on top, and pepperoni chips with cottage cheese.

Oh, and 8 out of 10 days I have first bite syndrome until 6 or 7 at night, and then I'm wide open.
