How long do the slimes last for?

I just ate too fast and am trying really hard not to vomit.

@@NewKaren Hi can you tell me when that started happening? Have you been experiencing it since surgery or since you began eating "real" food? I'm just curious to when that may start. I just got out of surgery on Monday so I'm still on full liquids. I haven't experienced any of it so maybe I haven't reached That point yet?

I only vomited once and that was in the hospital I was eating ice chips and took in a piece that was too large. I practiced eating slow pre-op and after that ice incident I remember to go slow.

Try taking slow, deep breaths.

Hi guys, I have experienced it a few times but last night was by far the worst. I need to make sure I only take one small bite a minute because I was hurting last night. And it lasted about an hour or so. The thing that really sucks is that I can't even lay down because the food is still sitting so uncomfortably. It's a true learning process, but I am down 48 lbs since my surgery on September 15th :-)

Yes...I've vomited quite a few times,its when you over eat and the food won't go down..it feels like you have to burp but nothing comes out..so the food is just sitting there until it comes up.

With me I keep swallowing to make the food go down.

But to no availability the saliva comes right back up with the food. ....I will never learn! Its a learning process

I've heard some people buy baby spoons so they have to take smaller bites. I was told by my nutritionist to chew my food slowly and let it dissolve instead of chewing and swallow like I used to.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
