Getting stuck with no fill?

I'm 2 weeks post op moving through the diet stages with .2 cc in my band (i think??) I'm in the process of switching doctors so it will probably be awhile before I get my first fill. I was just wondering....am I at risk for having food get "stuck" and not being able to tolerate certain foods with a basically empty band?

Even if the band does not have a fill, it still does narrow the channel for food to go down. So it is possible to get stuck.

I do not have a fill, and I have never been stuck...but I have been close once or twice. It is always my own fault because I took too big of a bite and didnt chew thoroughly. Luckily, it didnt happen.

I can tolerate any food, but I do make sure I chew, chew and chew.
