That's what is referred to as the "slimes". I know it sounds gross and it is gross. Are you taking a PPI like prilosec?

This happens when you are not able to tolerate certain foods, and it is your body's way of eliminating the food from your stomach. Completely normal, but if you don't want this to happen, eat slower, smaller amounts, chewed very well.

And if not already, talk to your doctor about a PPI to reduce acid.

I do tak a PPI every morning but my food gets stuck in my esophagus. I called doc nd nurse told me they repaired a hernia and sometimes that happens. I cant eat, really. I eat just a bit and food gets stuck nd i have to stop. So for mothers day i had fish nd spinash and it felt good in my stomach. I took leftovers for work nd ive been trowing up all day. Its just what u said cause thats what it looks like but i really take my time eating. I dont know, im really tired of this. My surgeon is like 28 hrs away but im gonna have to take the trip.

Have you called your surgeon? If you don't mind me asking, where was it done? Do shakes and liquids go down ok?

      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. 🤞
