Help -Am I too tight???

[BSWhip08 23]

Hi All-

I had my 3rd fill last week. I notice it has made a big difference - I seem to be having trouble with everything. This morning I drank a small amount of Water to take my perscription pills and I slimed and up came some salvia.

Do you think I am too tight or do I just have to adjust?

I notice the mornings are espcially difficult.

Hello....Sounds like you need a little taken out because you are supposed to not have slime and feel like u cant drink..your gonna have problems if u dont get that fixed..

I too have had this concern but I think its a little of both. I have had to adjust to things like chewing better, not gulping Water and etc...this last fill for me gave me restriction and I dont want to give it back

I personally wouldnt want a unfill because chances are it will mess up the weight loss..if u losing weight then try eating slower and chew ur food well..little portions and dont drink and eat.not a good combo!

It may be like mljalways said, you may need time to readjust to your new level of restriction.

Also, it is very common to be extra tight in the morning. I have to have my thyroid meds on an empty stomach with Water and as tiny as the pill is, I still get stuck on it sometimes. Having hot liquid before eating does help if that can be worked around your meds and your Breakfast.

Try something warm in the mornings, first before taking pills. My experience in this was just trying to ride out and adjust those chewing and derinking habits. Good luck!:w00t:

If you were having problems with foods, I would say adjust your eating and chewing and maybe wait it out, but if you are sliming after Water in the morning, you should probably get an unfill. Sometimes it only takes getting .5cc out to help. Call the doctor's office and see what they think.

I would think it was more the pills than the Water that made her slime. But cold water still sometimes just gurgles down slowly for me first thing in the AM.

generally speaking today I am having a tough time.

All day yesterday was fine - I had an issue last night because I took a bit out of something that I should not have. Although I ate it slowly, it got stuck and I slimed serveral times before I went to bed. Today things are not much better.

That cleared it up a little more. It sounds like you need to go on liquids today. You probably have some swelling from last night's episode. Try the warm liquids as suggested and see if that works. If it continues more than a couple of days, please call the doctor.

I agree with what crzytchr said, you probably have some swelling from last nights episode and need to take it easy for a day or so.

When you are back on solids make sure you sit down and concentrate on eating. Take small bites, about the size of the fingernail on your index finger, chew it until it is mush then wait a few seconds before your next bite. This all may not have been necessary after the first couple fills, it wasn't for me, but I have had to readjust my eating habits with each fill since.
