I dont know if this is possible, but is is possible for something to get a LITTLE stuck? I had Chineese food last night....chicken and broccoli. I also had maybe 1/3 cup of rice mixed in there. About 10 minutes after eatting, I felt the restriction....then there was a little weird pain in the center of my sternum. Felt like there was something possibly stuck and then went way. Maybe I didn't chew a piece of broccoli good enough? Maybe it was the rice? I am blaming the rice.....I have heard a lot of people say they can't do rice. I have been filled....If I remember correctly I am at 2.5...I could be wrong....the humidity in NY has been CRAZY so I may be outta my mind just a little bit. This morning I desided to have a liquid breakfast...nothing is coming up or out, I have had no slime, no hiccups...nothing.....I just want to make sure what ever it was is gone!! I have burped a few good times, maybe the broccoli just gave me gas? I dunno.....so many things that could happen its hard to tell....live and learn as they say

I took a bite of a peach the other day, it was'nt quit ripe. I chewed and chewed..then I gave the rest to my kid. About an hour later it felt stuck, it took another hour for it to pass. I still learn the hard way.

Yep, a little bit stuck. I have to lift my arms up over my head and stretch up and back. That usually opens up the area enough to make whatever go on down. It's always uncomfortable, and sometimes I slime, too. But it always goes down. That band is there, buddy! But if I swallow too fast and don't chew enough, I get a little bit stuck.

I have really been feelin my band ever since my first fill last week! Holy Moly! Who ever invented this whole process was such a smart person! Who woulda thunk it!!! I have been feeling fuller quicker and longer....I have been satisfied with what I have been eatting and haven't really had any complications thank God, except for this little bit stuck experience.....that I still blame the rice for...ohhhh evil demon rice :devious I couldn't imagin what is going to happen with my next fill...whoa! scarey scarey scarey........all though, interesting and fasinating to see the pounds come off!

I find that happens to me on pretty much a daily basis at the moment. I find that eating a mouthful or two, then getting up and walking around before taking the next mouthful, tends to help a bit.

Hey Porcl,

Sorry to hear about your discomfort. You are already filled to 2.5cc?

I went for my first fill on Friday, and only have 1cc. I don't feel any restriction tho.

I am wondering if I should call the doctor and see if I can get an addtional fill.

This weather is killing me.....plus, I have a sinus infestion, as well as a chest cold.

We don't have any A/C in our school, so I sweat like a pig, then cool off with a small desk fan....I cant wait to be done....

TTYS

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
