Sliming Again?

[ljperez 87]

Are the slimes with solid food? I'm still on liquids have not got that yet. I did have something like dumping today.

It happened to me today sliming then i threw up after almost 4 wks out. I was stuck first eating fish I guess I didn't chew enough or I was eating too fast I can tell you I don't want that to happen ever again.

@ljparez: yup, slimes are caused mostly by solid foods because liquids can just pass through. I never get them with liquids or even shakes. Usually i start getting the hiccups and i feel food in my throat. Then i am off to the sink to spit it out. Sometimes it leads to food coming up, but rarely. Usually it is my fault due to fast eating or a couple bites too much. It is usually over in 10-20 seconds(the amount of time to get to the bathroom and spit). Good luck.

With me it has lasted longer at times. I too believe its from too dry foods, not chewed enough, etc. Once I tried to wash it down but that's like flushing a clogged toilet. Dont recommend it

I've read all the post & when you say slimies are you actually throw'n up or does it just come up some - I'm only only 6 days out & haven't experienced this... Guess I'm not getting it - sorry ????

Sliming is not the same as throwing up. No food comes up. Sliming is basically a lot a saliva in your mouth.

My first slime was at 4 weeks. Think i was a little too comfy with my new sleeve. For me, it happens when i eat too fast, "bad habit" Sometimes, I can walk it off, but usually it means a trip to the bathroom to get it out. GROSS!

It only happens if you eat to fast or to much, I'm a pig so it happens to me frequently....

I get slimies, vomit, n other crap at the same time!!!! Not a happy camper lately

When It happens to me I have to go throw up in a hurry. I know this is gross but the 1st thing out is so much mucus that encases the bite of food that put me over my limit. It's no wonder it makes me sick because there is so much of it.

Exactly what happens to me ):

I have a retry sturdy sleeve but I have slimed a couple times. Both times involved eating really dense Protein. Once chicken, once pork. Papaya enzyme makes it go away more quickly. I carry a pill in my pocket anytime I eat out. It is not a problem if I skip that last bite.

Happened to me today for the first time! I was eating leftover (microwaved) chicken fajita strips, so they were tougher than the first go-around and was feeling uncomfortable--ate too much (though wasn't much) or too fast and my mouth started watering like I'd vomit...went to the sink and heaved and up came this big slimy blob---then some (all?) of the chicken I'd had. Gross as it sounds--I ate strips and looked like cream-of-chicken is what came back out--so seemed to be well chewed..lol. The coming back up didn't hurt really, but felt LOADS better afterwards. Now sipping some warm tea (since Water doesn't work for me yet) and hoping to comfort my sleeve a bit. Guess I'll take it easy tonight with something soft and shakes to get my Protein in.

The only other time I've vomited since being sleeved was in the hospital with the blue (acid) drink.

7 weeks out and have not had slimed or foams. Hope it doesn't happen, sounds very unpleasant!!

13 days post op and for the past two days experiencing this. Thanks for posting. I just figured that I have to eat slower and if I even have a hunch that a bite my brig it over the top I try to stop, however havent perfected it in 24 hours. So throwing up is the next best thing or walking it off.
