Poll - what causes you the biggest problem to get down?

[OH Juli 15]

Kissmygrits,

I didn't get my first fill until 6 months after getting banded because I had plenty restriction. We, my surgeon and I, thought save the fills for when I needed them. There is a finite amount of space. I've had two since.

As for what gives me grief, mostly it's rice, and hard cooked egg. Dry chicken can hurt too.

I have trouble with ninja throwing stars. Even with gravy, I can't get them to go down.

What the heck are Ninja Throwing Stars?

Even the sound of them is painful...

Everything goes down. Ugg. I would love it if the cake I had last night would not of gone down. Will power is a bitch

I'd suggest poaching your ninja throwing stars. Keeps 'em nice and juicy. That's what I've heard, anyway.

This was tough to pick just one. White meat chicken is probably the worst. Followed closely by Pasta (unless it's cold in a pasta salad), soft bread, steak (except for prime rib), and any vegetable (unless it's overcooked)

This is not like a diet. On a diet, I would be eating a lot of chicken and steamed veggies, neither of which I can eat now. LOL!

Asparagus does it for me. Every time. Too stringy or something. bread (like a hamburger bun) gets stuck too.

dry white meat chicken. UGH!! It's got stuck twice now. should have learned the first time. Dark meat is fine. Sometimes tuna in Water gets a little wierd. I was afraid to eat bread for 3 months. I woofed down a kiddie McDonald's burger last week with no problem......I was furious with myself. I'm trying to tell myself that I can't eat bread.....Maybe after my fill tomorrow that will be a thing of the past....

I answered this before my 3rd fill and said I could eat everthing. Now it's a month later, I've had another fill and things get stuck. I just can't handle bananas and chicken. Afraid to try bread. I could eat a whole box of crackers, popcorn goes down fine and so do nuts. It's kinda crazy isn't it.

I can't eat ravioli, perogies or any Pasta that is firm. I've had a couple experiences with beef, not hamburg, but other beef. It got stuck. And I can agree with ivyrose325, I was very glad and happy as a lark when it finally did come back up. If I pay attention to what I am doing, chew, chew, chew and think about it before you swallow, I seem to be able to do pretty well. Try not to become distracted or try not eat while your mind is absorbed somewhere else. It's risky business. Not to mention can be painful.

Oh geez... I feel so stupid... so they aren't REALLY eating them.

I was thinking they were some sort of exotic Pasta or something.. lol

I cant eat anything in the morning until I have a pot of hot tea. The worst thing so far are these really good pigs in a blanket that my mom makes, both times i ate them i felt sick for days. The second worst is when i forget to eat, then remember that i am hungry and try to scarf something down, arg. Or if i cook dinner and snack while i am cooking, then try to sit down and eat with the family.
