Jerkey is a great way to go. I've found I keep a bag in my car and one in my desk drawer at work. Expensive yes, but the amount of protein you get is well worth it!

I really don't have an issue with eating too much. If anything, I'm wondering if I'm not eating enough? Last night for supper I tried about 2oz grilled chicken in small bites and about 4 cooked baby carrots. Sure enough, I spent the next 30 min spitting up regurgitated chicken and small carrots and tons and tons of slime...and frothy phlegm. I've really tried paying attention to how fast I'm eating, cause I suspect that as being a culprit too...but 1-2 minutes between bites should be slow enough, shouldn't it? Again...i'm looking for whatever advice I can get to try! Thanks!

I know this is a super old post, but I'm looking for answers that my surgeon can't give me. I'm 3 mo's out from a sleeve and have always had the slimes, since surgery. I can eat something and walk into the bathroom, just open my mouth and regurgitated food covered in thick slime just shoots out. Never over eat....I don't wait too long to eat...and really doesn't matter what I eat, it's always there. Meats of course, are the main culprit, so I do limit them or keep away from them. But I've found issues with lots of other things as well. I haven't taken antiacids cause I never have pain/burning/or belching acid. Is this common? do I need an anitacid although not having any symptoms but the slimes? I just can't imagine that this is the rest of my life! Making sure there is a bathroom near me at all times to go spit this stuff out!

i agree with this completely. My weight gain has never been because I've over ate food or ate junk food. I just never ate. You would think you would be skinny, no. I gained and gained. I work as a school nurse so am off in summers, in hot weather, I don't eat. Thus, I would eat one meal a day, at supper. That's it. I can't do that. I have a hard boiled egg, an Atkins Protein Bar or a protein shake every morning. And sometimes it's a struggle to get them down, cause I have no appetite or hunger, but i know the importance of getting that in.
