Okay, tonight I discovered something truely gross.

When you PB on chopped creamed spinach, it's form doesn't change from pre-PB to post-PB.

I don't think I can ever look at it the same ever again.

I remember having a similar experience while puking spaghettios during a stomach flu (pre-band). Very disturbing.

Ewwwwwwww! :)

Hm almost as bad as watching your kid throw up unchewed cocktail frankfurts, eeeew. Literally one bite swallow. I think you call them weiners, lol.

When I was a physiotherapy student and we did dissection on human bodies, we looked for the carrot gland in the abdominal cavity, lol. Where do the carrots come from?

Isn't it amazing we always look at what comes back, hoping to determine what caused the damn slime/pb anyway. I usually find myself saying to myself, so that's what caused this.

Ewww. my cousin ate & puked Teddy Grahams once, and they were still Teddies when they came back up.

I'll confess something kinda related. I rarely upchuck - twice in the last 20 years. Last time was a la stomach virus. I'd eated hamburger pizza for dinner. Long story short - chucked the next afternoon. Couldn't make it to the bathroom so I hit an empty/unlined trashcan. If I see puke or hear someone puking, then I'll puke too, so I couldn't "pour" the "trash" into the sink or toilet - the sound would have made me chuck again. So I put the trashcan in the shower on its side, close my eyes, and try to blindly maneuver the showerhead so that it's spraying up inside the can. Well I give up and look. My first thought is more panic than thought, "WTF? Do I have some kind of stomach parasite? What parasite looks like THAT?" and I'm completely freaked out b/c among the now-very-wattered-down unsavory bits in the shower, there are thin black wriggly things floating around in the tub. It really freaked me out for a minute or so until I realized... ohhhhh... stomach acid must turn pickle rind black. I was seeing the wavy pickle slice "skins" from my hamburger pizza. :(

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
