Oh I know your there now buddy.....

Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the Water....

BAM!

Toasted whole wheat with lemon pepper tuna...stuck and slowly passed after a drink....

Felt it slowly lube up and pass on through with the liquids.....

I am 31 days post op and testing the waters now....and it just didnt work for me today......

Note to self, toasted bread is a challenge.

(for me)

Oh yeah, the pain....the scared thought of tightness and well.....I just dont want that to happen again. Didnt throw up....so does that count for 1/2 point? LOL

Toasted sandwiches are often difficult as they involve 2 pieces of bread, try having an open toasted sandwich. I find it far easier to eat an open sandwich as it only has one slice of bread.Plus tuna can be a bit dry as well.

Remember don't give up on a food just because you have had difficulty with it once. Next time you try eating it could be very different.

I have better luck w/crackers. Not quite as portable as a sandwhich, but tastes just as good w/most stuff you would put in a sandwhich.

crackers huh, never thought to eat those instead of bread. thanks

Yep, you only get a 1/2 point if you didn't slime and throw up. Sliming is the best part of getting stuck.

Here's a little tip: Do NOT drink to get unstuck after you start getting fills. It NEVER works and only makes matters worse.

After good restriction I stay far far away from bread, toasted or not. I can do a few reduced fat wheat thins on a good day.

Yup, i"m on the wheat thin band wagon as well...bread-toasted or not, kills me but i can typically do 4-6 wheat thins with whatever on top without too much difficulty. Welcome to bandland!

I normally have 2 servings of Saltines through my day....usually with tuna and a string cheese. I do well with them for now. I also tried Wheat Thins yesterday....had to make sure I chewed well and eat slow but did ok with those too!
