Sliming is when your mouth fills up with spit consistently!

It's a very unpleasant expirence! It can happen post op of you don't chew we'll enough, or you sleeve doesn't like the texture, or you eat a little too much. You can feel like something is stuck in your throat, and your body tries to lubricate the stuck food out, and you form thick salavia to move the food through. Then you can throw up slimy saliva balls. It's horrid! I have slimed maybe 7 times total. Once you know your sleeve its easier to avoid. Seems to happen in the fist six months primarily. I slimed last weekend-- and it was the first time in at least a year! (Dry chicken!) I'm 19 months out

Sliming is when slimmer a green snot ghost flies through you and leaves slime behind. Also it is when you decide it's ok to show up on a nickelodeon tv show where they push a menacing button and ruins your whole day.

It is a mouth full of saliva when you eat too much or too fast. There is also the worst stuck food pain that occurs for the same reason. It is worst when you start on solids and figure out how to eat sleeve-right. For me, months 2-4 was a lot of sliming because I always ate too fast. After 5 months, my sleeve healed enough that even eating too fast did not cause sliming. Thank goodness.

However, I developed and intuitive sense to when I felt satisfied versus full. Try and satisfy your hunger and not make it a goal to eat to being full. It will take time for you to learn this skill. However, once you do develop the skill, it will take you a long ways towards a lifetime of healthy eating with others and when you are alone. You will have a peaceful relationship with eating food and be able to enjoy the intricate details of tastes and smells.

      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.
