How would you know if your band slipped or if you caused vascular constriction to your stomach? I screwed up and took one bite of my daughter's pretzel and I nearly died! It got stuck and the pain was horrible. I was in Walmart too so I rushed out to the parking lot where tons of mucous came up. Now I'm sore.

Probably fine. Go to liquids for 24 hrs to deal with swelling.

the band is not that easy to injur or we would all have hurt it by now...d idnt your doctor let you see one and hold it? if not ask to see one next time so u can judge it better. Stuck issue happens all the time to all of us then we remeber to stick to the rules...i ts just part of the proccess

Haha- thanks guys. Well my doctor told me a horror story of a guy eating a donut at a golf outing. He caused vascular constriction and his band slipped. I figured all it took was a donut!

So, on the bright side, you do have some restriction. That's good news! Now you know why they say small bites, chew, chew, chew?
