Flight yesterday, stuck this morning



Recommended Posts

So, I flew from Seattle to Chicago yesterday, did fine eating last night. This morning, I got stuck on a tiny bite of scrambled egg. Ended up with very runny oatmeal, very slowly, and that seems to be ok. I have read that the band seems to tighten with flight, but can anyone give me an idea how long it stays tight? The other problem I may have is getting a soft enough diet the rest of today and tomorrow after being stuck today. I am with a tour group and we have pretty set menus for the next couple of days. Any suggestions?

Seriously? This has been viewed 96 times and not one person has any advice? I am shocked. Well, I've been stuck, or close to being stuck, at almost every meal since I arrived Monday. If I don't lose weight on this trip, my body is simply incapable of it! Walking miles a day, eating a quarter of what I have been used to...you would think it would be inevitable, right?

Sounds like you are too tight. You should go see your Dr.

any way you can get to a store or Vitamin shop to pick up portable protien shots? i would recomend u stick to liquids for the first day or so and let the guide know that you are having issues. they are there to help

I know I have to try to have soft food for a day if I've been stuck. Protein Drinks. Even like "boost" are usually available at drug stores . once my band is irritated I have to be diligent. Good luck to you. Hope you get some results!

Thanks, I have been doing what I can as far as getting Protein drinks in and just going very slowly with food. Today was finally better, but still being careful. Does anyone know if this will continue after I fly home?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
