My mouth is watering.



Recommended Posts

Im not sure if it is related to the fill I got 4 days ago but my mouth is making more saliva. It is watering like when you think or taste a lemon. Its not really effecting me, Im just swallowing more.

Any thoughts?:confused2:

I haven't experienced that feeling. The only time my mouth gets to really watering is when I'm about to get sick off of Water or something I ate.

It is probably just one of those crazy symptoms of lapbanders. Have you notice that your gag reflex is more sensitive? It could be because of that, cause when your are about to upchuck you start producing large amounts of saliva. I used to have an Iron stomach and a desensitized gag reflex, from years of throwing up due to Migraines. In high school I tried one time to make myself throw up and I could pretty much stick a toothbrush all the way down my throat and nothing would happen. (Sad story I know, don't worry never became bulimic) Post band though, if a straw goes too far into my mouth I gag. I personally think its funny. It also makes it alot easier to expell stuck food if it is being stubburn and won't come up. Just stick my finger in my mouth a little ways and bam.

It's like the old song...The leg bone's connected to the thigh bone." HAHA. It's all connected. Like, if I get stuck or am too full, my nose is runny. My doc calls it brackish Water, but I say it's SLIME. Your body is making more mucous and digestive fluids to pass foods thru. Are you too tight? keep an eye on it.

      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.
