Hiccups are what is called a "soft stop". It's a sign you need to learn to watch for.

It's the sign that you should stop eating, For some people it's a hiccup, for some it's a sigh, for me it's a burp/hiccup combo.

Just means your band is doing its job of reminding you. Of course, you can keep eating, but just because you can, doesn't mean you should (as is quoted on here quite often).

Your band is telling you to stop. Continue at your own risk. My experience has been stuck, PB or slime when I try to push past it. Good luck!

What does it mean when you hiccup but still can eat more? It's so confusing. If I am able to eat more than 1 cup I assume not in the green zone . But I have episodes of getting.stuck often and then I think I'm too tight.

Just because you can eat more doesn't mean you should. The band's job is not to physically stop you from eating anything. Portion Control and good food choices will always be your job.

Have a look at this link, it will help: http://drsimpson.net/fills/Lap-band-eating/lap-band-not-restriction/lap-band-and-restriction.html

I know Portion Control is my job but so many people post that they cannot physically eat more than a few spoonfuls. Is that being too tight?

If you can't eat enough healthy food to sustain, then yes it would be too tight.

Sometimes when people say they "can't" eat more than a couple bites they don't always mean it's physically impossible to eat more but rather they simply don't need or want more. They're satisfied on very little food.< /p>
