I got my third fill on Monday (about 6.5 ccs total in 10 cc band that can hold 12 ccs). I don't think I'm at my sweet spot yet, but I'm definitely feeling some restriction.

Tonight, I got dinner started (turkey chili) and while it was simmering, I went downstairs and did 30 minutes of exercising. I drank little over 1/2 bottle (16.9 oz) of Water, then ate a small bowl (maybe a cup, if that) of chili, and just under an ounce of cheddar cheese.

Within moments of finishing eating, I start coughing. It's not because I'm coming down with a cold. I can feel it (whatever it is) in my stoma region.

Do you think I probably ate too soon after exercising? Or perhaps I'm too tight? I haven't yet drank any water, as I wait an hour after eating, and that time is almost up.

Any input would be welcome.

Thanks!

You probably were suffering from a bit of dehydration after exercising which caused you to be tight. I appear to be fairly sensitive to this sort of thing and I have to be careful to have lots to drink before I even think of eating my first meal of the day.

Luckily, the coughing didn't last very long, just about two hours, although it was only intense for about 5 minutes. I have a feeling I just should not eat so soon after exercising.

I cant eat well after exercising. Not for hours actually if its a really hard session.

Other times, I can eat absolutely any food, so I am most definitely not even a bit tight, let alone too tight.
