Yes, standing seems to just sure make everything goes in the right direction..ha! I do not slime or PB half as much standing!

You are right it does go down better standing up. If I get stuck or almost stuck standing and walking makes it go down quicker.

My doctor told me if I had to stand up it was too tight. :rolleyes: I like it that way but of course there is more risk for erosion, etc.

Good ole standing is a great way to eat! However, I try to improve my posture and sit up straight, when I sit. Gravity sure does help!

Yep, standing helps. It's like when you sit it pinches the band closed or something. I eat sitting most of the time but if it gets stuck I just stand or walk and if fixes itself.

Thanks all I am thinking it is a tad tight I have a 11cc band with 6 cc fill.....the walking helps when It feels stuck..or holding my head back so my neck is straight.....the thing is I have figued out what hurts is the ball of slime you get...not the food ...food never comes up ... just the slime.....If it continues to be I can stand to get it down without problems I may take a cc out at 4cc I could eat without problems...not like a sandwich or pizza but just a good dinner salmon veggies etc
