Got stuck! Back to basics...



Recommended Posts

I had my 2nd fill last Friday. I have 8 cc in a 14cc APL band. During this whole process, I seemed to do quite well. I could eat anything, bread included and nothing bothered me.

This morning I woke up and during Breakfast I got stuck. (I started feeling fuller and fuller yesterday and remember during my 1st fill, my doc told me that it could take a few days after your fill for you to feel restriction.)

I guess I thought I was invincible, that I would never get stuck, never have a PB or slime, etc.

Well today was a wake up call for me. Back to the basics now...

I finally had a PB and it came up, but boy was I miserable! I think I learned my lesson...

alot of people can't eat breakfast like normal. I can't eat anything till at least 9am. If i do, it comes right back up.

WOW that brought back memories of two weeks ago when I had my first "stuck". I found out fast what slime and PB'ing meant!! lol :mellow: If it happens again I think I am going on liquids for the rest of my life!!

I don't know if you ever saw the movie The Excorsist, but I suddenly felt like that famous scene with the green (pea soup) slime! :blink: It took over my body and scared the bejeeeeezs out of me! I stayed on anything without lumps in it for a week.

Yeah, my doc's assistant told us: "once your feet hit the floor in the morning, get something to drink."

Makes it easier for breakfast to go down (and everything else- I try to get my 60 oz's of Water in by 2pm and have little trouble the rest of the day).

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
