Got stuck 3 times today!!



Recommended Posts

I feel my throat very sore ... I was hungry and I had some pork Soup my mom made ... The 3 times I ate it it got stuck... My question is how bad is it or what can happen to my band if I got stuck three times in one day? :(

Sorry to hear that. Pork is on the tough side to chew. Did you chew each piece real well? I almost gave up on eating it. Stuck is the worse feeling.

Actually it was kinda soft and soupy so I figure it was going to be easy ... NOT! So after the third try I gave up and made me a chamomile tea :(

Ouch that's rough!

Getting stuck xan aggravate the band and cause swelling (or tightness) for the next day or so

Also getting stuck too often can cause us to throw up or PB which is associated with higher risks of a slipped band

It's happened to me, when I was learning.....breaking old eating habits can be tough, I had to learn the hard way I can no longer eat the way, and in some cases the things I used to eat. Also had to learn to take it slow..give it time to pass through the band and not over fil too much to fast........learned to "Listen" to my band whenever I eat....and still do....

But then it was my old habits that made me Obese and getting the band is/was supposed to change my lifestyle.....

Also, once I would get stuck, I had to learn to give it a rest because it is irritated...continuing to try to eat only dominoed and never got better until Water would not stay down...

You mentioned pork...In my case I gave up all meats because they were just too risky...besides, It was a good health move IMO....

In the past when I was too tight, I had many days like that. I learned that after the first time feeling stuck, I needed to go back to eating only Soups or drink liquids for a day or two because once you get stuck, everything is still swollen and you're more apt to do it over and over again.

Live and learn vmarlau! Sometimes it took a few times for me to get it! I used to get stuck if I let myself get too hungry and then would try to eat too fast. Now if I am hungry I will have something in between a meal and not let me get to that point.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
