Sliming

[lizbuff 0]

The worst sliming I've had has been with anything reheated (i.e., leftovers). My doc says that when you reheat things in the microwave it sometimes slightly changes the texture and dries things out. He advised no reheated food. I have PB'd twice since being banded 5/5/08 - both times was with chicken. I've pretty much had to give it up all together; which is hard becausing I'm finding that's pretty much what I ate all the time. I usually slime if I eat too fast and am with a group of people and not paying attention to eating slowly. I've had it last up to an hour and that was a miserable feeling. I tried walking around the house in circles trying to let gravity do its work to get the food to go down. I'll definitely remember the hot tea idea next time.

Boy oh boy...do I wish I had read this post earlier!! I went over to my inlaws house for a little birthday celebration...and had a decent meal of one sausage link and a little potato salad w/ bbq beans...then my brother in law brought out the bbq pork ribs that had just been pulled off the grill. I had one very small rib and the next thing I knew...my first sliming (and more than just sliming heavy phlem) experience. I was banded on 6/30 and had my first fill on 8/12. The pain was intense and unpleasant - and I'd honestly love to NEVER EVER go through it again. It is trial and error I suppose...but I can say for sure that bbq pork is not going to be on my birthday menu next year!!
