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.

      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.
