What is sliming?

When food gets stuck the body secretes mucus to help it go down, since its stuck already, it just makes it worse and won't stop until the blockage is gone.

It's also known a as pb (productive burping). If you want a sense of what is like, look up the hag fish on YouTube

Yes, when I get stuck, I try walking first, then I will PB if necessary. I do not go out to eat very often for this very reason, but truth be told it is my own fault when it happens. When I do go out to eat, I usually order Soup or a baked potato or a crab cake, things I know won't get stuck. This is not for the faint of heart!

I've had my band for 3 years and food still gets stuck. I'm having it adjusted again. I lost only 20 lbs. Very disappointed with the band.

Have you been going in for regular followup Dr visits and what does the Dr say?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
