  1. 4/17 - I had a pretty good day. I just forgot to take my vitamins. Nothing out of the ordinary happened on my end. 

    4/18 - Was having a conversation and eating with a co-worker. I was not paying attention to how much I ate and ended up taking a bite too much. I have been sitting here for the last 45 minutes with this bubbling/foaming filling in my chest and throat. I am not sure if my sleeve is creating a lot of acid to digest it or if I need to dump. I do not have my normal symptoms so I think I am good there. I have tried walking around but that feeling will not go away. It fills like I drank soap and my stomach is making bubbles and my saliva is really thick and foamy.

      My two 2 week post-op appt was when I was advised to start taking my vitamins. I take the following:

      calcuim

      vitamin D

      iron (ensure that you are taking iron and calcium at least 2 hours apart. I choose to take them 3 hours apart to be safe)

      biotin (I need my curls to stay glamorous)

      multivitamin for women

      b12

      Due to me having issues with remembering to take my vitamins. I downloaded this free app called Round to help me keep track.

      Congrats on your surgery. Now is way too soon to be taking chewy vitamins.

      Have you already scheduled your 2 week follow up?

      Yes. Thank god that feeling went away. I mean it took almost 2 hours but it did go away. I told my co-workers, y'all cannot eat with me anymore. I need to focus lol. I normally count 10 bites and I am full. When I am focusing, I hit the 6th bite and I start slowing down even more. So by the time I hit 10, I can feel the restriction slightly. I took 11 yesterday lol.
