Guest BikiniBeachy Posted January 2, 2009 also, I wanted to say I was sorry for not being around much, as my laptop broke and has been shipped for repair. But I do hope everyone is doing great. I'm still PBing here, but trucking right along otherwise. Hopefuly, my computer will be back soon so I can get back online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marie623 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Try walking and moving around. Broccoli does the same thing to me. Drinking Water won't help it will just make you "slime" as I like to call it :tongue2: thats the best advice I can give you. I hope it helps no worries though, sometimes it takes time Marie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daisylou 0 Posted January 3, 2009 pineapple juice is supposed to work well. You need to only take tiny sips though. I have heard papaya tablets work too. You have to chew about 5 of them and you can get them at Walmart. I usually walk around with my hands in the air to stretch out the stomach area and that has helped.

cwm812 11 Posted January 3, 2009 Try the papaya tablets. They work great. For some reason, pineapple juice doesn't dissolve anything for me. It just makes me PB, but papaya has been wonderful. Ever since I started using them, I've never been stuck for more than 10 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobody's Girl 0 Posted January 4, 2009 Whenever I feel something getting stuck I wait a few minutes to see if my body will throw up on its own. If I dont throw up the problem food naturally, I stick my finger down my throat and make myself throw-up. Works like a charm! I know I'm probabaly not supposed to do this, but I only have to maybe once a week. And in my opinion it is much better than being in such pain for a long time.
