Was My PB Normal?

[Jpet 0]

This morning I had a particularly rough PB. This is my second and like the first time, I PB'd because I was eating too fast and bites that were too big. You'd think I'd have learned by now. . .

However, this morning was different because it was actually quite painful. It was painful right before I started the PB (sorry, gross I know) and then I had pretty bad pain mid chest level extending into my back for about two hours after the PB.

Is this normal? Are your PB's similarly painful? I feel fine right now and of course I'm doing liquids until at least tomorrow morning.

Thanks for your advice!

Yep. I get the shoulder/back/upper chest pain when I've eaten too fast or too large bites. Though, as I'm getting more accustomed, I've PB'd less and now get aches lower. I must be chewing better but still eating too much....

I get really crazy pain too. That is usually how I know I need to PB. Then after the pain slowly subsides. This just started for me about a week ago. Went from 3cc to 4cc in a 10cc band. Seems crazy that 1cc can make that big of a difference.

Sounds normal to me. I think that the band gives us that pain just as a reminder to slow down, eat tiny bites, and chew everything to death!

Hopefully it won't happen again anytime soon.

Take care.
