Band Slippage on creamy soups?

Is it possible for the band to slip or move when you are on creamy / pureed soup phase? I have mild soreness in the middle of my chest and on the left side by the port incision. It's probably just due to walking and moving around too much (i'm in the third week post op) but I just wondered if the creamy or pureed soups could cause a band to slip. And what would it feel like?

If you band had slipped you would not be able to get anything down, including water. If you can drink you're fine as far as slippage. You're probably just sore. Remember, your tummy muscles had gone through some serious trauma 3 week ago and needs time to heal. Avoid lifting heavy things for at least 6 weeks as that can cause a slip.
