PB'd for the Time Today...



Recommended Posts

Okay. I am 10 months out from surgery, just got a fill yesterday and PB'd for the first time today. Kind of Scary, and I prided myself on not PBing ever before! For anyone who has had this experience, I hate to get graphic, but was the consistency like, well- phlegmy? I thought it was going to be different and was surprised. It was actually kind of like clear snot.

Again, sorry to be so graphic. It is just an all around unpleasant experience!

I was banded on June 19 and am having my first fill on July 31. I don't know what "PBing" is ... AUGH! Can you PM me and tell me what that is? Haha. I guess my morbid curiosity is my first priority... hehe...

Take care,

Sarah H.

Your not alone here.....I have been banded almost 15 months and just had my first PB ever a couple of days ago.

A PB is a productive burp. A burp that produces food or slime.

Mine was very productive. It was weird and I don't want to do it again. ALthough, it was better than sliming for 45 minutes.

Ha, I thought PB was just food! Then I have PB'd and had 2 sliming episodes which were just gross. I have found out now that my band will not tollerate spagetti bolognese as that's what I ate the times when it happened..

Looks like that is definately off the menu!

I still have to learn what foods come off of the list, but I just had a fill two days ago and was sipping Soup when I PB'd.

It was definitely not something I look forward to doing again.

I laughed reading your posts though. It's good to know I am not alone.

For Sassbucket and Sarah7, you will most definitely know what a PB is when it happens. Good luck!:thumbs_down:

      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.
