A charleston chew hot cocoa. I have had a hot cocoa before, but never this kind.

I got the cocoa, then went and did a corn maze. When I got back my cocoa was cooled. I did drink it faster than normal, but within 5 minutes, I needed stop ! and there was no waiting !

Big lesson. Even if you had it before, if it's a different brand, do it at home ! I was never so embarrassed in my life !

For those are you who are not on FB... this is my post yesterday. PLEASE LISTEN TO ME !!!! You don't want to go through this !

two things happened today. Foamies ... and the horrible.. absolutely horrible dumping syndrome. Let me tell you folks... do not eat or drink anything new if you are not at home. Had to make an emergency stop at Whataburger and I spent at least 45 min cleaning up the walls, floors with a mop, and using lots and lots of their bleach. if it's TMI, GOOD... don't ever eat or drink anything that would cause this, it's horrible !!

That's so crappy chellede! I hope you're feeling better today!

Oh wow! Sorry you had to go through that. Do you think it may have been too high in sugar? Charleston Chews are delicious but loaded with sugar. I'm not sure how much would be in a hot cocoa version of it.

What are foamies?

If I over eat I get foam that comes up. It's gross. Yesterday when I ate those chicken wings, I had the foam, but then when I coughed a big amount of clear slimy stuff came up too. (sorry if this is gross, but it is what it is). It's saliva not having anywhere to go because of your food. It's super gross.

I could be wrong on the saliva stuff. I don't know why it exactly happens, but it happens when you eat to much.

The slime stuff was gross and there was a lot of it !

Again, sorry for the grossness.

It's also referred to as "frothing". Your new anatomy now produces this to help you digest food in lieu of stomach acid. When you over do it - or even when you don't - it can give the sensation like you have a burp caught and travel up your esophagus.

      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.
