Hi Jennye,
Yes, I'd say the saliva thing is a PB, or "sliming" may be a more accurate term. Whatever you call it, what's happening is that something you ate is getting stuck and your body is trying to help it through (or back up). It probably is a good idea to stick with soft or mushy foods at least through the next meal.
It can be hard to manage solid foods while you're getting used to it. Are you sure you're really pulverizing foods into nothing in your mouth before swallowing? Try nibbling just a little tiny bit at a time. And, what seems to be most important for me, wait 10 or 20 seconds between each bite.
If you're still having trouble with solids no matter what you try, you may be too tight. But assuming you can get liquids and mushy foods in, you might want to try to work with this level of fill for a while, since as you lose weight it's entirely likely the restriction will ease somewhat.
