Too tight or bad bandster?



Recommended Posts

I'm having problems getting stuck. Here's the story...

I order my 4 pc kids meal with a large iced tea. We pull in to the adjacent Wal-Mart parking lot and I take a bite of my McNugget then a swig of tea, not thru the straw. OUCH. Oh that's not good. I try and bite of nugget because I'm a fat kid and I want more food. Nope...Not moving. More tea...oh that's really bad. The slime starts. SLIME SLIME SLIME SLIME SLIME SLIME. I've wasted all of the napkins. I get out and walk around. It takes me 25-30 minutes to get the food down.

Next day...Two bites and some tea and I'm stuck again. This time the food comes up in a slimy ball of goo.

Am I getting stuck because I'm too tight or because I'm drinking with meals?

Sounds like it's because your drinking with meals- a real no no. Also- additional drinking will only make a stuck episode get worse. I hope your not offended, but I just have to comment that chicken nuggets are not the best weight loss food. Fast food resturaunts are tough- I stay away from them. Best wishes!

Put out your wrist. Bad bandster, bad!

Drinking while eating seems to reconstitute Proteins no matter how much you chewed prior to swallowing.

Lesson learned.

I learned this the hard way with chicken as well. It was 2 weeks ago and it was the last time I drank with a meal.

I will try and stay away from my whole anti-McDonald's spiel before I get called a preacher again. :rolleyes:

I think the better question here would be: WHY are you eating chicken McNuggets??? I don't think that there is a Surgeon/Doctor/Nutritionist on the planet that would sat that is a GOOD choice....ice tea or not.

I have the same problem if I drink with my meal or within 20-30 minutes afterwards, I surmise that the liquid is causing what is down there to swell a bit and then it is a volcano. So try not drinking and see what happens. If you still get stuck, you are taking too big of bites and not chewing well enough.

Bad bandster, lol.

Its the drinking. I drank with meals for the longest time, it didnt bother me, but past a certain level of restriction I couldnt do it anymore (other than tiny sips of wine if I'm out). I cant even have a cookie with a cup of coffee sometimes.

      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.

      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!
