Two months after surgery, I just got stuck, and slimed for the first time. Lord, that was DISGUSTING!!! :)

Ew.

No real point to this post other than to share my, uh, "milestone."

Sometimes food gets "stuck" if a piece is too large or you haven't chewed it well enough. It will eventually come back up, or go on down. Until it does you will have discomfort (from slightly uncomfortable to pain), and your salivary glands in your mouth will go into overtime, bigtime, there will be saliva filling your mouth and overflowing....thus "slime":drool:

Yes indeed, the 'first slime' milestone - I remember it well! Mine was on salmon - and although I thought I had chewed it to bits, obviously I hadn't. It was a long time before I could eat salmon again - only because I kept remembering the slime! But, I got over it.

Learn from your experience!

Yeah, it is a little strange, but it sure beats the vile taste of actual vomit!! I'm usually able to tell when it's coming, but I did it once on the table in a restaurant. My husband was shocked and appalled. I couldn't help it. I started crying. We just covered it with napkins, left a HEALTHY tip and paid the bill and left. How humiliating.........

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
