Oh my word! I thought I was feeling some restriction up until now, but I could eat faster than I should and I wasn't having to take tiny bites to get things down. I got a third fill on Tuesday, did fluids for 48 hours, then mushies for a day. Tonight I had roasted chicken and steamed broccoli and felt like I tried to kill myself!

I ate about 1/2 cup at what I thought was a slow enough speed and chewed like crazy, but felt like it was all going to come right back up. It finally settled down after a few minutes, but I can see that I am finally going to really have to make the chewing and slowing down much more concentrated than I have up to now!

Not sure if this is the green zone yet, but I think it is much closer now. Fingers crossed!

I am doing ok with solids most of the time, but last night I apparently didn't chew enough and had a slight stuck episode again. I see the Dr. again on Tuesday and really don't know if I should hope for another small fill or not.
