Help I ATE SOMETING SOLID!

IM TWO WEEKS POST OP LAP BAD...I ATE SOME SOLID FOOD...I LOST IT FOR A DAY...COULDNT TAKE SOUP....THE FOOD FEELS LIKE ITS IN MY CHESS ...WHAT SHOULD I DO? HAS THIS HAPPEND TO ANYONE ELSE?

WELL YOU PROLLY SHOULDN'T HAVE EATEN SOLID, PUREE YOUR FOOD IF NOTHING ELSE.. BUT WHEN I EAT SOMETHING THAT SETS LIKE A BRICK I CHEW PAPAYA ENZYMES TO BREAK IT UP. SOME PEOPLE USE MEAT TENDERIZER IN WATER BUT I CAN'T TAKE THE TASTE. YOU CAN BUY PAPAYA AT WALLMART.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO TO THE LAP BAND BOARD ALSO AS I AM A RNY'ER AND IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT FOR RNY'ERS.

I SURE HOPE YOU FIND HELP. I KNOW WHEN SOMETHING I EAT SLIDES DOWN WITH OUT GETTING A CHANCE TO CHEW IT, I FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO DIE... GOOD LUCK FIREND.

LET US KNOW HOW IT WORKS OUT

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND.  OH IF ALL ELSE FAILS CALL YOUR SURGEON.

THANK YOU I'LL TRY THAT! I FEEL LIKE THE FOOD ID STUCK IN MY CHEST BUT OTHER THAN THAT IM FINE...HOW MUCH MEAT TENDERISER DO i PUT IN THE WATER?

WELL I THINK A TEASPOON IN LIKE 3 TO 4 OZ'S OF WATER.. BUT IF IT WAS ME I WOULD MAKE SURE THAT I ALWAYS CARRIED PAPAYA ENZYMNE WITH YOU. I LIVE ON THEM AND THEY WORK. I HAVE THEM IN EVERYROOM OF THE HOUSE AND MY PURSE AND THEY ARE TASTY AND CHEAP FROM WALMART. YOU MAY WANT TO POST ANOTHER QUESTION ABOUT HOW MUCH MEAT TENDERIZER TO WATER... ALL I KNOW IS IT'S NOT TASTY BUT SOME SAY IT DOES WORK. GOOD LUCK MY FRIEND

WELL SINCE IM IN FOR THE NITE AND I HAVE THE MEAT TENDERISER...ILL GET THE PAPAYA IN THE MORNING IF I DONT FEELL BETTER THANK YOU...IVE LEARNED MY LESSON  NEVER AGAIN WILL I TRY SOMETHING I SHOUDNT. THIS IS ALL VERY NEW TO ME AND IM REALLY STRUGGLING WITH THIS. THANKS AGAIN

DO WHAT YOU CAN FOR TONIGHT AND TRY TO WALK AROUND ALSO TO GET IT TO MOVE. I WILL BE SENDING THOSE POSITIVE VIBES FOR YOU IN HOPES THAT YOUR FEELING TOP DRAWER TOMORROW.. YES IN THE BEGINNING WE ALL MAKE A MISTAKE FROM TIME TO TIME. HECK EVEN AT 4 YEARS OUT I MAKE MISTAKES AND PAY THE PRICE FOR IT.

TAKE IT EASY AND LIKE I SAID IF ALL ELSE FAILS CALL YOUR SURGEON.

BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.

HI JAN.
YES PAPAYA IS A LIFE SAVER. I GET MINE FROM WALMART AND I LOVE THE TASTE. SOME OTHERS TASTE A BIT DIFFERENT BUT SO FAR I HAVE NOT FOUND ONE THAT I CAN'T TAKE.

MINE ARE MADE BY NATURE VALLEY FROM WALMART 180 TABLETS IN A GREEN BOTTLE, AND AROUND THAT PRICE NOT ON SALE.

BELIEVE ME I HAVE THEM EVERY WHERE AND CHEW THEM AND LET IT WORK. OMG THEY WORK GREAT.

IT LOOKS LIKE THE BOTTLE YOU FOUND HAS ONLY 100 IN IT. IF YOU CAN GET TO WALMART YOU MIGHT GET  A BETTER DEAL.

EITHER WAY IT WORKS FOR ME AND A LOT OF OTHERS THAT HAVE TAKEN IT. IT EVEN WORKS FOR MY HUBBY AND DAUGHTER AND THEY HAVE NEVER HAD THE SURGERY.

I HOPE THEY WORK AS WELL FOR YOU AS THEY DO FOR ME AND OTHERS.

YOUR WELCOME AND HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND.
