I was getting stuck a lot b/c my bites were to big & wasnt chewing enough. I started using a knife & fork with everything even when i eat deli meat. I cut it with a knife & fork and then chew, chew, & chew! It made a big difference. not sure what to comapre the size to but it's larger then a #2 pencil eraser.

Thanks to everyone for the replys! Yes, I can eat some solids. I can eat string Beans, deli tukey, shrimp , & fish. chicken always comes back & doesnt digest. My last fill was about 2.5 weeks ago. This fill definitly put at restriction but im still relearning how to eat! the chew chew chew & no drinking. So Im trying to figure if im to tight or if i was eating to fast & i now see that i was taking to big of a bite. I now use knife & fork for everything.

Hello Everyone, I am new the this forum however, I had Lap Band surgery on 12/1/2010! I am a little frustrated at this point b/c my scale is not moving! My last fill was 2.5 weeks ago & under fluroscopy & yes i have restriction & i'm not eating at all what i use to but no changes on the scale. Have been eating a lot of soft foods ( think thts mushies ) trying to eat more solids like fish. Learing how to eat again is not tht easy! I feel better if I at least saw the scale move. Im a little unhappy rgt now, but hoping things will pick up soon!
