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.

      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.
