My first Slime

[faroutman 0]

My Breakfast got stuck yesterday but finally went down. Should have learned my lesson then, chew your

#$%# food! Take smaller #$%# bites! Started bfast this morning, got in a hurry didn't want it to get cold. Tried to hold it down, no good. I see why it is called "sliming" now. Just hope my band didn't slip. I had a bad experience waking up after surgery. Wasn't pretty. Lesson here boys and girls do what YOUR surgeon tells YOU to do, not what someones else's surgeon told someone else to do.

You learned a valuable lesson. I'm sure you didn't do any damage. I don't even try to eat breakfast anymore. I just drink coffee and let the band loosen up then eat lunch.

If I eat Breakfast at all, it's something very small. Even a hardboiled egg in the morning sometimes makes me feel uncomfortable.

I couldn't believe it this morning. I drank a Protein Shake for Breakfast, and for the first time since I was banded 10/31/06 I finally slimmed up. That was nasty. I have had my share of throwing up from being stuck !

But never had mouthfuls of slime to spit out.. I'll wait another 4 1/2 years before this happens again I hope.

I've heard that from others that waiting a little bit to have breakfast is the thing to do. I will remember this. I really hate throwing up, and have only done it a handful of times in my lifetime, and sliming sounds really icky.

Uh, congratulations? Welcome to being truly banded. After a stuck episode, I usually take it easy for a day or two with soft foods.

I am like many bandsters. I sip coffee on the way to work at 6am then don't eat anything until about 8 or so. If I try to eat earlier, it is just plain ugly.

....beware Lesson #2: eating chicken and talking on the phone at the same time..... Don't ask how I know about this one.

OMG, I just burst out laughing. Glad I didn't have anything in my mouth! I am laughing WITH you! Of course!

how long did your sliming episode last?

Mine lasts maybe 2 minutes...I'll be spitting slimy saliva and then I'll be all good. But then... I won't be able to eat after that

[roziecakes 20]

You poor things. I am so glad I haven't had a sliming episode yet. It sounds so awful

I feel sorry for my coworkers when I get stuck at work. Sometimes I can make it to the bathroom, sometimes I have find a trash can. Jack I know from experience what happens when you talk on the phone and eat and it ain't pretty.
