    Sliming?

    Warning: This is GRAPHIC! have only slimed about 6 times post-op. the best way to desribe it is after eating something a.) you don't chew well enough b.) something your sleeve doesn't tolerate c.) if you eat too much also I will sneeze multiples times if I eat a little too much-- and have heard this from other sleevers Sliming is a lubricating response your body has to the food in your sleeve. I have a stuck feel in my chest/ throat. Then i burp and finally I throw up big slimy balls of mucousy slime. No food comes up. sometimes just once and I feel better but on one occasion when I ate beef Jerky at 2 months post op I tottally slimed for like 2 hours :-( feel free to ask more questions. The best way to avoid is to take small bites, chew well, don't over do it and try new textures/ foods slowly.

  15. Yes I have but I don't have any bald spots or anything, just lost maybe 1/4- 1/2 the volume. It seems to be slowing down now. It started at 3.5 months. As you can see from my pics my hair looks just fine!
  16. Thats about the rate I have been losing too and i am very happy with that at well!

    How Long To Eat Lettuce?

    I have been eating a few salads a week since 2 months out with no probs!
  20. for me it is usually the quanity of what I eat, but everyone is different. I only got the slimes once from chicken breast and I eat it all the time and it was no different so I think is just depends on what kind of mood your sleeve is in! I have gotten the slimes 6-7 times total since Aug. so it gets less and less

    10 Months Out

    you look stunning!!
  22. I agree with Kelly L. Its thrush- plus I am a nurse :-) you can get a Diflucan pill you can swallow. I got it a week after surgery as well
  23. I have gone to a few support meetings as well and I have found a wide range of people. It seems like most the sleevers are in their 20's like me. There was a poor man with a lap band that he has had for 3 years and he is over 500lbs. I hope he consideres revision to Sleeve!
