this happens to me when I take too big of a bite or I do not chew enough. What helps me - stand up and slowely... walk around. And take slow deep breathes.

I feel the same way however;I end up burping a lot until the food goes down. It's highly uncomfortable for me so I just eat a little and lay back and try to let the food pass. I was wondering how long is this phase gonna last because it makes me hate eating even though I have to eat to survive. I'm only 3weeks out and I'm on pureed meats like chicken fish and turkey and I had the sleeve done on May 6th I'm at a stall right now with my weight loss but I've read it common. Any advice would help

I felt the same way when i started on stage 2 i was beginning to even hate eating period and just stick to liquids. But i came to my stubborn senses and had to just take my time. Chew slow swallow slow. And take brakes in between so you dont get that stuck feeling.

chew

eat slow

eat slow

don't over do the amount of food

could also be symptom of reflux but my first guess would be chewing, speed of eating, or the amount in one meal.

I'm having the same problem at the present moment... Do you think taking Tums would help?

I would not assume that it would be a big deal but you might should check with your physician/nurse first.

I am right at 3 weeks out and I am experiencing the same. I struggle with how fast I eat, but even when I work hard at going slow I struggle with this. Walking around definitely helps. I'm also struggling with fluids.

I'm at a little under 1 month post op, I experience the same thing. I chalk it up to being full so I stop eating all together. I see that as my trigger to stop and the walk around a little bit to let it work it's way down. It goes away in 5 min or so.

I keep getting food stuck too! I either feel like I can't breathe or I'm gonna vomit. I can't hardly eat anything without it getting stuck. I'm 24 days out

Water is the key. 3 months out and if I am not hydrated I can't get any food down.
