Many of you know that last week I got my second fill. The next night I got stuck on a brussell sprout. Tonight we had steak....yes...steak.I took small bites and chewed a lot....but I started to feel stuck right in the beginning of the meal. I put my fork down, did not freak out and waited patiently. After about 5-7 minutes I was able to resume eating and finished my small 3 oz. piece of steak and most of my brocclii. I handled the situation very well and am super proud of myself for doing so...:biggrin:

Good for You!!!! We learn to slow down and prevent the sliming when possible.

Way to Go!!!!

Good for you

I have eaten a lot of steak since banding. Always VERY small bites, and very slow eating. Filet is my favorite. Marinate well and the steak is more tender. Strips and T-bones are probably too tough. Part of a ribeye was good, I split it with someone, and never eat a whole one any more (22oz bone in used to be no problem).

Congratulations!!!!

Great job! I, too, find that just sort of quietly waiting and listening to my body helps short-circuit bigger problems

Good job! Broccoli is also a tough one for most. I miss steak, though I had some amazing prime rib a few weeks ago that could honestly cut like butter. It was a nice surprise!
