I just had a fill 4 days ago. I am back on regular foods. was doing soup, cottage cheese, apple sauce, slider foods i guess. Well yesterday i had a few bites of chicken breast and the first bite went down ok but then the second one felt like i swallowed a golf ball. I guess it felt like it was stuck. no pbing or slimming but it hurt real bad for about 5 minutes. then it just went away. Is that what stuck feels like? I had 2 slider burger patties for dinner with gravy last night and everything was fine. could the chicken have been to dry? It did have a small amount of bbq sauce on it i mean small amount. I have a freezer full of chicken so i hope it is not one of those foods i just can not eat. Please help me figure out what that pain was. oh yeah. I was afraid of the chicken so i was real sure to chew it til it was practicaly dissintegrated. i only have 3.5cc in my band.

I always have a hard time with chicken... especially white meat, so I very seldom eat chicken anymore because its not worth the discomfort to me. If I do eat it, I take bites so small...about the size of a pea and chew it like there is no tomorrow.

White chicken is very hard for me to swallow, and I avoid it. I can do the dark meat, as long as it's super tender. And, yes, that describes for me what "stuck" feels like.

That sounds like stuck to me! I avoid white meat chicken unless its in a chicken salad or boiled in chicken broth until it falls apart. Dark meat works well for me.

Yes Yes Yes... that is what stuck feels like. I have gotten stuck more than a couple of times... and you'd think I would have learned by now. I usually don't have any problems with chicken.... or really anything so long as I cut it into teeny tiny bites...and remember to eat SLOW... that's the hardest part for me.... eating S -L-O-W when I'm hungry. EVERY time I try to rush a meal, I end up in trouble. Yesterday while at work, I tried to quickly eat a piece of shrimp for lunch. WHAT A BIG MISTAKE!!! OMG... I couldn't eat anything solid for the rest of the day... The pain was nasty and there was nothing I could do to move it. I guess shrimp will be OFF my list for a while. Went back to mushies today, just to give my belly a rest from yesterday's trauma. Will definitely be more careful now after that one!!

Some days I notice I'm tighter than others.
