I find I need even smaller bites of steak depending on the cut. I have more problems with hamburger. I guess I think it is already ground up and don't chew it enough. I have most of my problems with pulled pork.

What type of sweetener are you using? Some of these can cause diarrhea. .

Best wishes! If we can help, give a shout!

Some of my best friends and neighbors are BP. It does not change the person you are. Good luck on your journey.

I decided to weigh weekly, cause I stress over mini ups and downs. I did weigh daily for a bit when I first got to "onederland" cause I just loved seeing the "1" in the first digit. Remember this is a slow steady journey. It is not surprising to lose only 1-2 pounds a week and that can get slower as the weight falls off! Hang in there. We are with you!

Check with your doctor, I had had a couple of meds that I have had to back down on due to weight loss.

Also honestly prioritize yourself. What bothers you most. Remember each procedure is a new anesthesia experience, so try to do things that can be done simultaneously. Legs are the toughest to recover from... hard to keep them still!

Work with your band and change the way you eat. There is no reason you cannot enjoy the foods you love without all the drama. Go to liquids for at least 24 hours and then SLOWLY add in solid food again. As has been said here, small bites, chew, chew, chew, no second bite until the first is down, (some people try to consciously wait a minute between bites,) and do not drink while eating. Think of it as eating longer, but not less.

Try walking and windmilling your arms as you do. That said, this is sadly normal. Good luck!

Best wishes! My Mom quit cold turkey at 70! I wish you well.

Just remember to CHEW whatever it is very well. You don't want a stuck episode in a party situation!
