Tried to KILL ME



Recommended Posts

I swear it tried to kill me!!! My band. It unleashed its self from around my stomach.....climbed up my esophogus, jumped outta my mouth and wrapped its self around my neck and proceeded to choke me till my lips turned blue!

Okay, maybe the lips were blue because of the Raspberry Slurpie that I drank. And maybe the feeling like I was going to die was present because I drank a way too big of a slurpie in way too short of a time period. I gulped it down!!! It was hot...The slush was oh soooo cold...Oh Demon of Pleasure how do I reject you?

I had to sit down and REST after a drink!! I shouldn't have had the slush in the first place, however, who knew it would be my downfall for the day? Thought it would slip right thru...hell no!! I was in PAIN! Learned that lesson the hard way I guess......NO MORE DAMN SLURPIES....well, that big.... :devious ... I ONLY had a medium.... Yep, way too big.

LESSON LEARNED!!

Oh my goodness...thanks for letting me know. I haven't tried anything like that yet but I sure do love them. I am a big chicken at trying new things.

Glad your ok and the band didn't choke you. hehe...

I'm guessing the cold caused it to tighten up pretty good. I still have troubles with cold, cold drinks and I don't even have a fill yet.

I will TOTALLY keep this in mind because I adore Slurpees on a hot day.

The only thing I could think was because it was cold and because I had a medium one, which is like 16 ounces all at once...I didn't chug it, but I didn't sip it either....This was like 3 hours after dinner soooo maybe part of dinner was still in the pouch?? Dunno, what ever it was.....SLURPIES ARE FROM THE DEVIL, IM SURE OF IT ehehehehe This was sooo totally my fault....big time learning experience. I have had two fills....so maybe that makes the difference?? Dunno...whatever it was...I learned!! Small slurpie ~ a long long long time after dinner and sip sip sip!!!

I don't have a fill yet either (scheduled 8/8) but I have to go REAL slow with soft, cold stuff. I have to take small bites and wait between them with frozen yogurt or I get the most excruciating brain freezes!

Boy oh boy do I know your pain, sister! That happened to me ONCE only when I took a drink too fast from a frozen margarita. But that was pre-band. It's like an esophogeal-brain-freeze thing. Awful. Just sip slowwwwww.

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
