Important question to all sleevers!

[marfar7 1,533]

Mine was after my lapband was adjusted correctly (took 5 mths of fills) and I could eat very little. I thought Id enjoy just a little bit of whole grain pancakes at a coffee shop after church. 1 bite and I ran to the bathroom. Band didn't like pancakes. OR Pizza Crust or pineapple chunks.with my sleeve, I can eat anything. Haven't had "that moment" yet. So glad Im not throwing up most of my meals anymore

The 'panic' has happened once.. it has been the 'slimes'... Didn't quite make it to puking.

How?

Three bites of a roast chicken sandwich on a train when I was traveling for a long while from one end of a country to the other with no other food options.

One bite - fine

Second bite - yeah, okay

Third bite - ......... erm... oooh, hold on.. thats just got stuck.. oh crap, I'm going to the loo to wait for the sweats and over-salivation to cease..

A puking moment? When I had had too much drink, made a delhi ham tortilla, chowed down on it like I would have done 'pre-sleeved'. Got four bites in and went 'Oh crap'.. Ran to the toilet and it came up as it went down - not properly chewed!

I'm of the opinion that I can eat almost anything - as long as it's chewed really well.

After exploring 'chicken' in all its varieties? I'm of the opinion that it is one thing which one day can work, one day won't. As such, I eat chicken at home and choose 'safer' options elsewhere.

Wedding night I got cocky with drinking. Not much of a drinker before. I was 8 months out from surgery and was out of my surgeons no alcohol window. Well my wedding night I spent most of the evening in the bathroom. Hangover was worse then I ever thought. Too much sugar wreaked havoc on my gut. Good thing my hubby is such an understanding guy. He laughs now that I spent our wedding night with the trots. Good thing it didn't kick in until after I changed.

Glad you got out of your wedding dress or it could've been like a scene out of the movie "Bridesmaids."

Ha!!! You described it so perfectly with the one bite, two bites, three.... I started this post a few days ago because I had not yet had "the moment" and surely enough, two days later... I got cocky and decided to slice a half of an avocado up into small pieces (and I had portioned out 2oz. cubes to mash)... Well, I decided to make an amazing soy sauce concoction to pour over my few bites hoping to get my "sushi fix". Then, exactly as you described... 1, 2, 3.... Up it came as fast as it went down. Needless to say, I now know the feeling to watch out for in the future!!!

Oh ya...... I'm real careful when I'm out or at work to avoid the 'aftermath' of too fast, too much, or not chewed well enough and definitely NO drinking to 'wash' it down. Love my sleeve .... As long as I follow the rules!

That about covers the rules. I would say that spiciness is sometimes a factor and I find that I can eat more in the morning.

I must say that vomiting with the sleeve is much less violent than before. My experience with the flu and from my drinking days left my abdomen sore and it dragged on too long. With the sleeve it's out and over. My sleeve, which I call "The Bouncer", gets his job done quickly.
