I'm 99% certain I have a piece of mostly chewed Jerky stuck in my pouch right now. I can't keep liquids down on top of it, and there's a tightness in my chest. How do I help it pass through or come up so that I don't feel like crap?

you could TRY to drink as much Fluid as you can get in to make yourself throw up and push it out- i have done this and it's NOT fun...and I have broken blood vessels in my face throwing up doing it...but it worked. Or if it hasn't been long just give it time.....?

Well, either the papaya extract or the session before I went to get the papaya extract fixed it. But blegh.

I had beef Jerky stuck once- now i won't eat it- :( unless it's really soft. found one brand that is really good and soft- country archer I think it is. But I eat too much beef jerky if I have it, so i don't buy it

Hey, properly made beef jerky's good for you. About 9-11 g of Protein per 1 oz serving, and about 50-70 calories. No carbs, low fat.

That is true- i just feel like I might get too much sodium

do you make yours in a smoker or air fryer ( I know people who do both)

food dehydrator, actually. I'm just hoping this bad batch doesn't mean the dehydrator's bad. A replacement one is expensive.

When food gets stuck in my sleeve I just suffer through it without trying to push it down with fluids - that always seemed to make it 10x worse

I read about dissolving some meat tenderizer in an ounce of Water and drink that. I’ve never tried it personally.

As long as it dissolves the Jerky and not you. Remember the kids song " I Knew an Old Lady who swallowed a Fly" Sounds a little like it. But I hope things work out. before you need to go the E.R., mine would give me no chance to explain, cha cha cha!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
