Stuck sucks!

Cancelling fill 5 for the time being.

 

Got my fourth fill last Monday. Stuck for the first time Saturday and thought maybe I just ate to fast. Stuck again Sunday but attributed it to again eating to fast. Today I got stuck on a small bite of eggplant. I think it's official, my restriction does not need enchanced.

 

Sadly it happened at work for the first time and a few of my coworkers watched me race out of the lunch meeting. Another happened to be in the bathroom while the food worked itself out and I slimmed.

 

Keep in mind my coworkers don't know I was banded. Eye brows were raised and I'm waiting for the questions to fly.

    actually it doesn't suck, it BLOWS... IT will get better. You will learn to be cautious for awhile. You will get used to it... Hang in there, or should i say dont hang in there, but slide on in there.

    What did it feel like when it got stuck?

    It hurts. It's a heavy feeling in my throat and chest. You know that it's just sitting there. It was followed by the immediate salivation that preceeds throwing up. Or in the case of a stuck bander, slimming. I can feel my espophagus working to process the blockage.

    I did postpone my fill for the time being.
