Okay I will try to be constructive. Many bandsters cannot eat dry solids first thing in the morning. In fact some don't eat breakfast for several hours after waking. If you wake up starving I would recommend maybe a protein shake or Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. I would not recommend chicken or turkey.

Thanks Carolinagirl!!! These Bandersters are Brutal!!!

i know all about that :)

i have never been stuck but i am sure i would be spazzing too

are you feeling better?

SO LEARN TO READ CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU CONDEMN!!!! Those who live in Glass Houses Should Not Throw Stones!!!!! Have a Blessed One!!!

You know what? I have always supported your right to post what you like on here, despite a lot of complaining to the contrary. But to say you posted that as a "test"? How is scaring the crap out of people a good test? And who the heck made you God and gave you the right to test anyone? Scaring newcomers with your drama is complete crap. There are a lot of people honestly afraid of dying from this surgery and they need posts and "tests" like yours like they need a hole in the head .

Before I was just annoyed thinking you were being your usually over-dramatic self. Now I just think you're an irresponsible nutcase who's desperate for attention.

Since I have been stuck, on chicken, ONCE, I got the after-the-fact humor of what you wrote. Omg does it ever hurt!

I didn't think it was bad drama as Missy put it... But she said it herself...she wasn't going for nice.

I also get where everyone else was trying to warn newbies.. So, here it goes... NEWBIES, LISTEN CAREFULLY... no joke, your band will spank you if you don't follow the rules...HARD.

Distraction, eating too fast, not wetting dry turkey with broth or mayo or something... Nothing to stop you from having the band but something to think about when eating!

I felt like I had lit a big fat emergency flare, swallowed it while lit and it just didn't make it all the way down... My kids though I would die.. I just breathed, walked round and DID NOT DRINK. It passed quickly even though it felt like forever.

Thanks for the good laugh and the reminder!

hurts like because its stuck ?

i guess like some b's told me, i will know when i do..

Could not have said it better Mis!

That is totally misusing the forrum and craapy way to treat others not to mention irresponsible and imature!

Well im new...just got banded almost 3 weeks ago and this post scared the crap out of me <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> im already terrified of getting stuck' date=' so much so that i can really see myself staying on mushies alot longer than im suppose to. Im suppose to start regular food on wednesday and im scared. Even more now that ive read this...[/quote']

Don't worry, really, it hurts if you experience it but still not enough to not get surgery. My post title when I got stuck was " I'll never do THAT again"

Not as catchy for sure but the point is the same. You'll do fine!

:) thanks mini

A test? Really? Really?? Baiting people to see who you could get to react negatively??? HOW NICE AND POSITIVE IS THAT?? You must have been very bored this Sunday morning.

I didn't feel my response was negative. I've been stuck. It hurts. I've also had a slipped band... not fun either because it required surgery all over again. I didn't think it called for melodrama nor a "test"!

I think the baiting people is actually worse than the melodrama.

I actually think your post helps me! I happen to be one of those melodramatic people who gets anxiety and freaks out over things i haven't experienced before (there are many of us in the world... don't judge) so if i have a stuck episode after being banded and feel things i haven't felt (like choking, constriction etc) and i panic and think i am "dying", i will think back to this post and think "hang on now..... your NOT dying.... it just feels that way and other people have felt it too..."

So thank u haha!

The thing is, this isn't a private club, there are going to be all different types on here. We aren't all going to agree with each other on things... so let's ignore the posts we don't like and engage the ones we do... or something.

Yes because its stuck. I heard that you should walk and flap your arms like a chicken and take deep breaths. I did the funky chicken alright.

You won't mistake it for anything else for sure. I laughed at that one post when someone wrote " I think I may have just gotten stuck" Hunny if you aren't sure then you didn't cuz you WILL KNOW!

OMG- I read the post title and my heart dropped!!! I'm happy you're ok! How scary!!

And I get called rude lmao. Such an emotional bunch of women. You all must be pmsing lmao. Go eat some carbs you will feel better lmao.

You need serious help, and not from God...
