Food getting stuck... for hours!

I have not had surgery, so no. This is what the nut said during my preoperative class.

It's an interesting thought. I wonder why it would work.

@@jccanada happens to me too - I'm 6 weeks out today. It usually only happens to me though when I have forgotten that I need to chew my food until it is like paste in my mouth. All i can say (which I say to myself every day!) is slow down when eating and chew thoroughly until its more like the food you ate during soft phase. I feel that if I applied this rule I could pretty much eat anything i wanted other than those foods that would make me dump (so far only mild dumping on sweet wheat cookie and sweeter style yoghurt and some juices).

One of the issues (if you can call it that) I have right now is that I serve myself what I think is a small bowl or plate of food and still only get 1/4 way through it. I guess that is a good thing :-)

Yes last weekend. I finally did throw up but it was all stuff that I know wasn't stuck. It was so weird.
