Lettuce intolerance?

Hi everyone! It seems that since my first fill, I can't eat lettuce comfortably. Whenever I eat lettuce, I get a "stuck" feeling, like a rock is in my chest. I had to "slime" once because of it. I moved this weekend and figured it was because I was eating on the run. But it happened again yesterday when I was concentrating.

Does anyone else have trouble with lettuce?

    You have to chew the lettuce a long time otherwise it might lay on top of the opening like a flap and cause you the problem. Check with your dietitian or doctor.

    I used to, but it has gotten better. Try to go with softer lettuce or baby spinach, and put dressing on it to moisten it. Really grind and chew it as long as you can.

  • I don't do lettuce! 18 months and I have found that salads without lettuce are just fine! All the other crunchy veggies. I order salads without lettuce in restaurants and they all comply. Lettuce j

I didn't eat lettuce until a year out. It is just taking up valuable space where you could be eating something with better nutritional value. It will not stay with you to keep that full feeling either. Just my opinion.
