AngelaLou99 36 Posted November 6, 2013 I had my surgery in August 2012, and I considered myself to be a pretty experienced Bander. I never had any vomiting, sliming, or PBing until TODAY!! I ate my normal morning snack of Jack Link's beef Jerky. For some reason, I started burping and felt funny. I'm glad no one else was in the office at the time because they probably would have thought I was choking or something!! I got up and started walking around. No relief. I eventually found my way to the bathroom just in time! It was instant relief!! But it was scary because I didn't know what was happening since I had never had that experience before!! It just goes to show how things change at any time with the band. I chewed, chewed, chewed, and chewed, but for whatever reason the jerky didn't sit well with me today. So it will be mashed potatoes for dinner!! Now I know what it feels like, and I don't want to go through that again!! 2 Debbie3sons and 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChicagoRose 650 Posted November 6, 2013 At our center we are advised to be on liquids after a stuck, followed by mushies the following day, followed by the regular diet. I'm sure mashed potatoes will be okay for you, your stomach has been through a trauma =( Learn and move on, right? Good luck! 1 Debbie3sons reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
