Not necessarily. Some of us have tummies seemingly made of steel that rarely if ever throw up. I don't think I've thrown up since I left the hospital over a year ago.
I agree with @@stacyg1, you had restriction but kept eating anyway. It was likely spaced far enough apart that you didn't have any other negative effects. My suggestion would be to go back to weighing and logging everything. If you feel eating frequently works better then plan 5 small meals or 3 meals and 2 Snacks. If it's planned and accounted for there's less chance you will over eat. If you think your are having issues with acid perhaps you may want to stay away from highly acidic foods.

Way to go, guys! I've heard of most if not all the doctors you mentioned. They are amazing physicians, each of them excelling in one or more procedures. Please keep in touch and let us know how did everything go. We have a bariatric patient in our home and the more info we have on your experiences, the better.

it's not mucus but slime created by your esophagus. you are eating to much at one time. your pouch only holds about 4 ounces at a time. So my advice is to eat much much smaller amounts at a time, chew each mouthful thoroughly, and take time between bites. all of this allows the food you are eating time to process through your band into the stomach.
