My first "SLIME" in Cancun!!!



Recommended Posts

So, I'm on a trip for work to Cancun.... Sitting in the restaraunt with the nice white table cloths - eating the dry chicken and fish I was explicitly told not to eat. Just had surgery a while ago and assumed that all restriction was gone..... NOT!!!!!!!

Feel a tremendous pressure in my chest and remember everyone's stories about being out to eat at a restaurant and either sitting near the bathroom, or carrying a zip lock bag "just in case". I had neither. I quickly excuse myself from the table and run outside the restaurant and hide behind a stack of chairs. I'm feeling rather ill and know I can't throw up... this is not an option because I don't want to screw up my new band. Deep breaths - then, what's this???? liquid starts pouring out of my mouth.... I hear a cart and footsteps coming around the corner and think frantically - what to do now???? Run down the sidewalk toward the beach... this seems to make me feel better, so I keep doing it. After 10 minutes or so I feel better and decide to go back in. Needless to say, I sent my plate away and opted for the irish coffee instead.... was this a good idea? who knows, but it seemed to work.

Anyway - I am assuming this was my first slime, so thought I'd share.... :)

Night all!

Kim make sure you use something to lubricate that dry stuff, it really helps. When I am somewhere that I can't make a choice I always order some ranch dressing on the side to dip it in. :)

:faint:

Ok, of all the advice you have been giving me!!!! Luckily, with all the crap I have been eating I have not had this pleasure yet. Of course I have not tried real meat yet. I have had the golf ball in my chest thing though.

Sorry to hear about your experience. I hope you were ok quickly after that and it did not ruin your night.

Take care kimmy girl!

Hey Jack - No worries - I'm off dry chicken and salmon forever. Don't want to do that again! I had no problems up until that point and really thought I could eat whatever I wanted until my first fill (provided that I chewed enough). Just not the case though! UGH! I'll be more careful now! It was kind of funny though - thinking back on what that must've looked like. The girls eating dinner with me found it hillarious.

Betty - Good idea on the ranch. I'll keep that in the back of my head. Sticking to soft stuff now though when I'm out to dinner I think :-).

Kim & Sus - I know, I know.....

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
