Sounds like you are way too tight. I just had all the Fluid removed because I had EXACTLY the same problem. I WISH i could have barfed! It never up, just slimed like it was my job! I couldn't live like that anymore. I have two little ones and I was done. How much fluid do you have in? When was your last fill?

I have found that I need to eat really slowly and small bites chewed well. I have been able to eat tuna salad, chicken salad, soft cooked veges, some fruits -- but all need to be eaten and swallowed very slowly and then wait to feel that it has gone down before taking another bite. You should definitely talk to your doctor -- perhaps your band is too tight. Hope this helps. Sometimes it can be frustrating but hang in there and remember your exercise and water.

Yep sounds like you are to tight - As was already said - tiny bites - eat very slowly and chew the heck out of your food..

Are you keeping a food log, are you exercising

The band is never going to stop you from eating junk - exercise the gray matter too cuz truly this is where most of our problems lie..
