flower, stop the cycle by switching to liquids for 24 hours, then spend a few days on soft foods. I'd also recommend aloe vera juice, 2-3 ounces 2-3 times a day at least to help heal any swollen tissues around your band.

At that point you need to evaluate whether or not you need a small unfill. If doing the above doesn't solve your problems, then you need an unfill. If you are able to get "back to normal", then you need to re-learn your restriction level and work with it. Start logging your food for a few days.

I'll confess, I have PB'd food, waited 10-20 min and then gone back and finished my meal. It's not good practice, since a PB (or vomit) is NOT good for my band. flower, you need to slow down and really listen to your band and body.

You probably don't need an unfill...you just need to do some behavior modification. I know...I see myself in your post!

Be encouraged! You can do this! Go back to Bandster Eating 101.
