When you say you've been sick, what do you mean? How do you know when you have food stuck?

Im four weeks out and did something like your, wife came home with some cade I took way to big of a bite and BAM that bad boy his like a big fat brick in my chest sliming went on for about 5 min then it cleard on its own.

I did not go on luquids and Im find just eat the right foods, chew them enough and eat slow you should be fine.

Oh and just an FYI l love the band for teaching me a very quick and valuable lesson, the game has changed and I have to play buy its rules!!!

OMG, that's what I don't want to experience. Thanks for sharing. I will not be eating bread unless it's super soft. Hope you're feeling better today. Have a great one!

I had the same thing happen with deviled egg....OYE I must not have chewed it enough. I agree that the band is teaching me the way to be. Being in that pain is NOT fun. I am going to give my stomach a couple of days of liquid again too mostly because I am nervous and afraid to eat anything. I am sure I will buck up and try it again and Chew Chew chew. Slow Slow Slow.

Ok I take back my last reply fluids for a few days might no be a bad idea, I got stuck two days ago preaty good and now I got stuck twice today not as bad as the first time but my guess if there might be some swelling going on.

So back to luqids for me for a few days :)

bread is the worst!!! I love it, but try to stay away, because it hurts when it gets stuck. I think cutting bread out of my diet has been a Godsend for me. Helps that weight come off! :thumbup:

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
