O.K., be honest....every single time you slime/PB you do liquids for 24 hours after your PB? Yes or no.....

sleepyjean, it's recommended to do this so that your stomach can calm down, and if it's swollen or inflamed from the PB, the swelling will go down.

That said, I don't really do it. I've had very few really bad PB's, where I did liquids, but usually not. Of course, if I go back and try to eat something and there's still a problem (ie; I PB'd because I ate too fast/didn't chew enough, not because I ate something that just wouldn't work), I'll switch to liquids for at least that meal.

Early on, I didn't wait, no. But I lived and learned, and now if I WERE to PB, I'd absolutely stick to liquids for at LEAST 24 hours. I've had the vicious cycle where inflammation comes on the heels of a bad PB episode, and it's WAY worse than avoiding it in the first place.

ummmm what she said! in the beginning i would go back to solids. immiediatly sometimes finishing my meals.

now i dont chance it AT ALL. i have had my band almost 3 years though. everytime i think i 'know' something the darn things (band) proves me wrong again!
