:tt1:I had very few problems with vomitting, i eat slowly and chew , chew , chew. I have read a few notes on these boards , i was told to eat slowly and chew every 25 times. What was everyone else told, Hope this post helps the people who are new, and who are going to get the lap band.

i was told exactly the same thing. I chew like there is no tomorrow. My jaw hurts after each meal - but I have not vomited once - so it must be working!

Yup,

I chew chew and then chew but..... as Lise says.... I've never been sick.
