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.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
