Hello bandsters.. I received my 6th fill on April 15th exactly two weeks to date.. I'm able to drink Protein shakes, Water anything and eat all soft foods. But for some reason I've been having a hard time getting down meats? I had a hot dog and bun last night and I vomitted about 8 times and I could see the pieces of hot dog coming out. (Boy was I scared of band slipage). This has been the worst eposide since getting this fill.. I did try some chicken nuggetts for lunch and they came back up also.. But only twice did I vomit... Last week I was able to some roast and a chicken quesidilla without problem.. Do you all think I'm just tighter this week? or do you think I need a slight unfill? or am I not chewing well enough? Tell me what you think. Thank you

Try taking tiny bites and chewing them like crazy. And I would try and stay away from the bread. It might not have been the hot dog that did it. It could very well have been the bun.

Thanks, I'm going to take that advice.. stay away from the breads I do find that if it's toasted I'm fine.
