Hard time eating

The weather hase been really cold the last few days and I've noticed my band has been really tight. I don't like my band being this tight. Makes eating feel like a chore that I don't like to do. Even taking small bites and chewing really well it still gets stuck. Looking forward to some warmer weather moving in later this week.

**gets like this on rainy days too sometimes.

    have you tried "priming the pump"? drinking a couple sips of something hot a few minutes before meal time? when i had the band and had a really hard time eating (felt like everything got stuck! grr!) i tried taking a couple sips of hot tea or coffee before a meal and the food would go down and thankfully stay down without getting stuck. maybe give that a try?

    I didn't think about that. Thanks!
