Slimes= really horrible gross slimy saliva. It doesn't stop forever. Makes you feel like you are gonna puke. It sucks! Lol

The slimes for me, like Sass said, just a ton of saliva building up in my throat, swallow it down, twice as much comes back. The best way I can put it...its like taking a raw oyster (or a ball of snot) and letting it slide down your throat. It's pretty gross.

I was a BIG drinking while eating person. I learned real quick I had to stop. I watch the clock, and 30 minutes after I'm done eating, I'm good to go.

Lol! Yeah, it's gross. When I get the slimes, I have to throw it up. For me, it's like a small ball of food, encased in a mucas substance. It happens when I eat too fast, eat too much, or try and drink to close to eating.

Someone said cottage cheese helps or having a orange to suck or some apple sauce helps but who really eats apple sauce or oranges with a steak lol I thought about a fruit cup after eating but drinking the juice might be cheating just a little bit :) I'm a hard core drinker and eater I only drink when I eat infact so I'm looking for desperate ways to solve this when it comes time for surgery

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
