Trudy,

Yes it does suck to PB! It's a learning process. I HATE trying to PB while driving. I rarely if ever eat while driving for this reason.

Mari,

It's possible to always PB and I am sure that bypass people have to puke stuff up too. BUT if you are careful, follow the rules, go VERY slowly, tiny bites, etc.. you can avoid it. The only time I PB is MY fault so I don't get mad "at the band" itself, but myself. I tend still to either eat too quick or too big of bites. But I know how to avoid PBing, I just have to be very mindful of what I am shoving in there. Don't freak out! I remember thinking B4 surgery that "I'll never PB!". I don't think it's possible to never ever PB, especially with a good fill, BUT you can avoid it like I said by taking everything slow. You will learn what foods will give you trouble and you'll be fine!

This is my first post, what exactly is PB??? I am booked with the OCC for the 27th of this month. I am flying down from the Toronto area. I am a little concerned about finding someone to do fills as well.

Thanks,

KIM

PB stands for productive burping and it's basically when food gets stuck, it comes back up because your band has restricted what you can take in. It's avoidable like I said earlier. I think there are others on here from Toronto, you might want to put up a post to see what they do for fills?

Good luck! You'll love the OCC.

I still PB quite often myself. :unsure: I also keep a bag in my car for that purpose.
