  1. Thanks for the Comments, I am glad to know that this is quite normal....
  2. I had my first fill last Monday and actually feel some restriction. My questions is, when I eat Breakfast my first bite always gets stuck. It doesn't matter if I am eating string cheese or soft scrambled eggs it gets stuck. It eventually goes down, is this normal? By evening I don't have an issue eating dinner..... Thanks for the input:rolleyes2:
