Still Sick

[davsan02 6]

I had my Sleeve done four years ago. I still get sick if I eat too fast or something not good for me. I don't usually throw up any food mostly the slime or more like releasing a large burp but it is not a burp, my stomach clinches like I am Throwing up. (I know TMI)

I know the obvious answer would be to just eat slower and better selections. I guess I am wondering if this is normal so far out of surgery. This does not happen all the time, sometimes I go a month or so without getting sick and then like now it is an everyday occurrence. I had a scope a few months ago to see if there was a blockage that is causing this but they said it was all clear.

Please any advise would help, or is this just normal? I have lost 130 lbs from my surgery weight.

Thanks

Congrats on your successful journey.

I am five years out and I still have restriction---still "slime"--still "dump" and still "hit the wall".

I also still have no appetite.

I consider it all means that my sleeve is alive and well. I've learned to listen to it, follow its lead and give thanks everyday.

Thanks for your comments, I have felt the same way that I am glad my sleeve is still working. I guess I was wondering if most people have this problem or if the symptoms reduce over time. My sister had the sleeve and has never been sick but I guess everyone is different. Honestly, I may not have lost as much weight if I was not getting the slimes.
