For me I cant eat and drink with in 5 min of the start and the finish of eating. I slim all the time, but sometimes are way worse than other times, its all trial and error. I cant really eat in public cause I worry about sliming, good luck!!

That was one of the 1st things I noticed when I started mushies!! I hate cold food, AND NOW i HV TO EAT COLD FOOD ALL THE TIME, ITS THE PITS!

I really enjoy no sugar added applesauce, w/low fat cottage cheese. And I like FF beans, canned chicken(ididnt hv a problem w/it) and salsa all mixed together. Good luck!!

Well your story sounds alot like mine. I was 5foot6 225 pounds and I paid 4 my own surgery on 10/18. I am also an emotional eater but Im not about to throw away all the money I invested in myself. I didnt go on a liquid diet till the two days before my surgery because I didnt know I was substo. I didnt start reading this sight till about 1 week after my surgery and Im glad that I didnt read it before. I only focus on the negative and I overlook the positive messages on this sight. I havent throwen up at all and I followed the diet that they assigned me post surgery.(and it wasnt that hard) I had a very ruff 1st week, but after that it was great. Ive lost 20 pounds and Im feeling great. Im sure this will all change after my first fill but Im glad I did it and I dont regret it at all. Hope this helped, good luck!!

what the heck is slimed? so i know what to expect!!

I hv 5 scars, they all had stiches that disolved. My dr. put this tape over them and he said they were healed when the tape fell off. I had my surgery on 10/18 and I only have 2 tapes left and the ones that are showing arent bad at all. They only itched every once and a while. Good Luck

My dr. has me scheduled to get a 2cc fill at 6 weeks post op. Im not sure why the dr.'s do things so differant. I noticed(since I haven't had a fill) that I can eat and drink at the same time it doesn't bother me at all. But I think once u get a fill u cant fit that much into your stomach. I'm expecting for things to be much differant after my fill!!!

Im so scared to get a fill, how was it? Did it hurt?

Im 15 days in and I felt about 80% better once it had been a week. Putting a pillow on my stomach helped a lot and I slept on the opposite side of my port(its usually on the rt. side of your stomach). I feel pretty normal now but sometimes I get a pain in certain places on my stomach. I'm about 95% just wishing I could each a real meal!!

I am 15 days in and I already had a spoonfull of iceing because I couldn't resist to see what would happen. Nothing happened and I'm scared to start solids on sunday.
