Severe Pain And Throwing Up

[Nmomy 0]

I have 5 cc band and 3 months ago I filled with .5 so now I am at 3 cc but for last 3 weeks I have a hard time to eat any solid food I am confused I was fine suddenly got tight. I am PB 4 to 5 times a day I have an appointment next Thursday just wondering how much should I remove? It is costly every time I fill or un fill. Please help any suggestion? I don't want to be loose I just wanted to be able solid food I can keep liquid not creamy liquid but no matter I eat slow and chew my food seems like stuck and doesn't go down.

Have you looked at how you are eating? As we get closer and into the green zone, we have to really follow the rules of small bites, waiting in between bites and chewing each bite for about 30 seconds or 25x. I was feeling like I was too tight after this fill; however, I re-examined how I was eating and I wasn't doing what I should have. I have taken notice to take very tiny bites now, chew, chew, chew, wait and then another bite. It helped me realize it wasn't the band it was me causing the pb episodes. Just want to make sure you have considered that may the problem before going for an unfill. Now, if you are having difficulty getting liquids down then definitely you may be too tight. I know you said you are eating slow (and so was I) but it was the size of my bites that were doing me in.

Good luck.

Thanks, liquid sometimes I hold sometimes not. I chew very good but still stuck just not sure how much should I un fill?
