i was wondering if anyone else had a problem with their pouch being way too tight somedays? i've noticed that it happens most frequently when i sleep in, which is super depressing since i am a big fan of sleeping in on the weekends. it gets so bad that i can't eat anything all day. i was wondering if anyone else has this problem and if they had any suggestions on what to do. i've tried drinking lots of fluids and smoothies and what not, but it doesn't seem to do much...it's starting to drive me crazy...HELP!

Yes all the time. I think most of us do after sleeping. I tend to avoid meals until lunchtime. Though I can do hot cereal like cream of wheat in the morning or have a hot tea. I think its just the nature of the beast.

gingerkid:

You might want to try and get up in the middle of night and have a big drink of Water. I think that sleeping a long time dries out the pouch and that is what makes it so difficult to swallow things in the morning. I sat in the sun for a couple of hours today and didn't bring a drink with me. When I got home I took three sips of iced tea and it all came back up. Again, I think my pouch got dry and made it difficult.

Mention it to your doctor and see what he/she says.
