For lunch I had 1/2 a hot dog and got stuck (and full) and threw the rest out. For dinner I am able to chow down on a giant enchilada. Why is it that some foods go right down and others are so difficult?

Bread? Also, I am much tighter earlier in the day than in the evening.

I've gotten stuck twice at breakfast. Several people on here say that A.M. it is more likely. Some say thet drink something warm to loosen things up.

It could be a possibility of different food types..a hot dog- fat and Protein..enchilada..hell even I dont know whats in those but maybe the different consistancy of the food effects its passage through the band.. mybe a hotdog expands in you tummy! like those kids toys that "magically grow in water"!

I also think that sometimes its mind over matter..I can drink a freakin huge margarita ( ) with no problem but a small glass of soy milk hurts like heck!

Mexican food always slides right on down for me. Hot dogs---not so good! No matter how well I try to chew a hot dog, it does not really get mushy-----sounds gross---but it does not break down well, so it is harder for me to digest.

I'd say stick to the enchiladas, they taste better anyway!!!

As does the margarita!!
