I have not been banded yet but i looked up some of the abbreviations Pb=productive burp

I think slimming is vomiting saliva not postive though I'll definately check back to see if anyone else responds I would like to know myself. Lisa73

PB is productive burp when food comes back up. It's not the same as vomiting because there are no contractions and the food hasn't hit the stomach yet because it's stuck. It's usually the result of eating to fast. Sliming is the extra saliva the body makes that comes up with or without the food when your stuck.

Very similar to an alien movies or The Fly movie. LOL

If you scroll down to "similar threads" there are quite a few posting on both topics. Lisa 73

Hi, was banded May 1st. Had my first Sliming today. had eggs for Breakfast. than for luch small amount of chicken and could tell it was just not feeling right. Little while later the chicken came up. It was like vomiting but not much work just came up. You will know it when you see it, not like old vomit, yea like slime. But feeling fine a few min later.

Part of the learing process. Sometimes you can eat with no problem other time just does not feel right when initally going 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.
