Too tight?
So for almost 2 weeks now I have been having trouble keeping things down, after everything I try to eat it comes back up...and I start hiccuping right away...and they are loud and annoying. So I think an unfill is needed right? Also ladies does your bra ever make you feel like your choking when food is stuck?

Band too tight
I think the bites I am taking are too big and it's hard to swallow..someone said fingernail size..maybe I should try that... I have been throwing up a lot because food is constantly getting stuck...liquids go down fine so I don't think it's too tight..live and learn I guess...

Help on chewing and swalloing
I am 5 months post surgery and I am in need of advice, my last full was like 5 weeks ago and since then things are hard to swallow. My husband had the same surgery a year and a half ago and he told me to swallow in small portions but its not working, it's hard remembering...how do you do it? I need advice...I am basically throwing after my first few bites because its stuck and I can't eat or breath anymore. And is it bad to make myself throw up? Help me please

Band too tight
It's been a week and a half since the fill, so I can't eat meat or chicken, no matter how much I chew it won't go down...rice won't go down, I think I need an unfill....

' PB-ing', What is it!?
So I get the pb'ing but my food gets stuck so bad sometimes I have to make myself throw up by sticking my hand in my throat...is that what causes the band to slip?

Band too tight
So I got a fill the other day and now hardly anything goes down, I think I have to have it loosened right? I had surgery in December and lost 20 pounds before and right after the surgery but since then I have lost nothing, it's going on 5 months now...am I doing something wrong?

2 weeks post and hungry
Update: I counted calories and I'm at 820, not sure if that's too low or not, may be why I'm so hungry...

2 weeks post and hungry
I haven't been counting calories, maybe I will today to see how much I consume...maybe I'm not getting in my calories....I had an initial problem and the doctor took out 2cc's of fluid from the band so now I'm wondering when ingot for my full Wednesday how much he will fill it. I could barely catch my breath with the 2cc's.
