OMG, that HURT!



Recommended Posts

I just had my first PB ever. Holy f'in crap, that HURT! Thought I was having a heart attack for a little bit. Jesus, between the sliming and the excrucuating pain, by the time it actually came up, it was a relief! I guess I'm going on liquids for the next several days. Pizza's going on the "do not eat" list. NEVER AGAIN. And I only had a single bite, too!

That sucks, I guess that gives "Pizza delivered in 30 minutes or less" a whole new meaning!
I WISH it had been 30 minutes. More like 3 1/2 hours of pain and misery.

I hope I learn from you and never eat pizza but I bet you i will break down at some point and have to learn the hard way!!
I've had it before, but this is the first time I'd tried it since my last fill. Before, even when I had pretty good restriction, I could still eat a slice, just really slowly. But I'm apparently really tight now, so it's a no-go.

Occasionally I miss pizza, so when the craving comes around...usually around that time of the month, I will suggest to go to our local pizza cafe. Every dang time I take one bite and then have to go to the bathroom and pb. I will never learn. My husband is now my consious voice and says, "Honey, remember the last 10 times we went, you threw up and told me to never let you eat pizza again!" LOL! It's so funny cuz when it is my TOM, I don't want to hear it and we go anyway. I get so desperate for it that I tell him I will just lick his pizza and not order anything. Well, that doesn't sit to well with him, I tell him that at least I won't throw it up and he won't have to pay for me to get food. His reply is "I got something for you to lick, and its not my pizza." LOL.

Restrict2008,

Remember each person is different...what I can't tolerate you may be able to. The band is truly a trial and error process. Actually, one more thing- what you may be able to tolearate now..may get stuck after your 1st 2nd 3rd or 4th fill. : )

As much as the "stuck" feeling hurts I still LOVE the band!

Mbanja,

Hey, it sounds like your DH has a wonderful alternative for pizza cravings!!! I think I would prefer that any day, to PBing in the Pizza Hut bathroom.

Seriously, guys, when I went to bed last night, I was REALLY worried that I'd have to call a friend to work for me today so that I could make the 7 hour drive to Memphis for an unfill. I couldn't even get Water down last night without PBing and I was still spitting slime up when I went to bed. I guess it was just swelling, though, because I've been fine today. I'm taking it easy, though, and staying on liquids for a few days.

      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.
