kyllfalcon 768 Posted November 30, 2012 Over 8 months out and I've been a very good girl. I've only had the slimes twices, and have not thrown up since surgery. I almost never take one bite too many. I obey "the gurgle" which is my warning sign to stop. Except last night... Today is hubby's birthday and since I still enjoy cooking and baking, last night I made him a cake of his request, oatmeal Cake. Delicious stuff!! First mistake was to have dessert immediately after dinner, which was about 3 - 4 oz filet mignon and less than half cup of green vegetable. Second mistake was to allow hubby, not sleeved, to cut my piece of cake. In he carried a HUGE man-sized portion. My comment to him was, "I could never eat all THAT!" Third mistake was, I ate all that. It was soft and warm and so delicious, and it just slid right down without resistance. The gurgle failed to happen. Five minutes later, I was sick. Very sick. I felt like that cake had grown to 20 times its original size. I was so sick I was afraid. I had to sit very quietly in the dark, and finally just went to bed. While in bed, the slimes started, so I got up to go to the bathroom. Finally I threw up several times and got relief. Lessons learned: Wait a while to have dessert. Cut your own piece of dessert. Cut your own piece very small. You can always get more if you can hold it. Throwing up doesn't produce nearly as much output as it used to! Guess I just got too comfortable and got my come-uppance!

amytug 996 Posted November 30, 2012 I lol'd at "I ate all that" and I think you're funny. Lol That said, I'm sorry, that sounds miserable. (Hug) 1 Frza reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nmouatrich 29 Posted November 30, 2012 Oh my could I relate! :-) 2 months out, we were on vacation and visiting friends. Had a WONDERFUL dessert.......only took 4 bites and it was 4 bites too many. No foaming (same as sliming), thought I was doing great...20 minutes later I was wondering if I was going to be able to make it through the night! I finally threw up and felt better, but I was begining to wonder if I had accidently committed death by chocolate! OOOOOOOO how I can relate and will NOT do that again, at least for a while :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzthebrit 146 Posted November 30, 2012 I also LOL'd at I ate all that! I wish I had had this problem! I had the slimes and vomiting yesterday just from taking my Iron pill!!! Your oatmeal cake sounds much better than that! Sorry this happened but lesson learned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
