I am going for my 3rd fill and I am confident that I will have good restriction and be close to my sweet spot after it. I am currently taking several capsules a day for supplements. Will I still be able to take these?

I wonder this too. So far with my 1st fill 1 week ago I cannot take any capsules. In the morning I have a difficult time taking my pills I cannot cut or break in half.

How about it from other more experienced bandsters?

I have to take my pills one at a time and I usually have something warm to drink them down with. I don't eat until about 1/2 hour after I take my pills/capsules. Sometimes I still have trouble, but mostly it is with the pills, not the capsules.

I didn't think to take them with warm liquid. :lb23:

Thanks so much

I should be starting my cycle tomorrow and that's the only time I ever feel any restriction- last night I had trouble swallowing my biotin and vitamin pill and ending up burping that yucky vitamin taste for 15 min it was horrible...

This is why I am scared to get another fill, I basically have no restriction for 3 weeks out of the month and then for about 5 days during my TOM I can't swallow much at all... I know if I get a fill so I can feel restriction during my Non TOM days I will most likely not be able to keep down thick liquids when it is that time... Grrrrrrr It's so frustrating!

So far I haven't had a problem swallowing pills.

I did just try Dontondan's suggestion of warm liquid for pills. I made some warm milk and added my favorite "ovaltine" to it. It really helped me get my pills down.

Thanks again for the great tip!!

Thanks guys. All of my supplements are capsules but if I break them open they are down right nasty to get in so I am certainly hoping that I can take them even if I have to use warm liquid and take them very slowly. I guess it will be trial and error for me. Hopefully not too much error because that is just called pain :o
