Slimes!

[KateMarie 15]

I'm 10 weeks post op....

I remember reading about 'The Slimes'...

I just tried a low fat chicken salad with onions. My belly did NOT like it. I'm pretty sure I have my first case of the slimes.

Any advice? I'm at work and about to gag!

once it happens you are doomed for about 45 mins! Stay close to a bathroom or garbage can! I have had it happen 5 times, and once I ate Breakfast and went to a meeting and ended running out of the meeting with a slime ball coming up into my hand! It was horrifying! Sometimes it would be quick and I would toss up one slimer, but once I slimed up slime like 5 times. (Sorry if TMI) :drool5: Luckily you find out your triggers (like not chewing well enough for me, and I have to steer clear of Subway flat bread) and it happens less and less the further out you get.

Thanks...I'm trying to sip Water but this is worse than being nausated! Gross!

Onion are now on the Do Not Eat list. Or maybe it was the Mayo....

BLAH!!!

Um, yeah those raw onions will kill you. On my post op diet, no raw vegtables for the first 6 months. I did have before then but in very small amounts. Raw veggies are really hard to digest. So take things in small amounts.

Be gentle to your new tummy and hope you feel better soon!
