Okay, I have seen others mention the "slime" effect. In the morning I have the hardest time getting anything down. I have to go spit up usually about 2 times while trying to get things such as yogurt down and all it is is what I call "slime". Once I get that up I am able to get down what I am eating.

Any reason what that is from? It's not just Breakfast, it's when I eat any meal.

This didn't start until I got my 2nd fill on 5/27.... I am at 4.1 now.

Thanks for any comments!

For me after I reached good restriction breakfast became non-existant. Many bansters have trouble in the morning. Morning is when I drink Protein Shakes. As far as other times of day, you may be eating too fast or taking to large bites or just eating stuff that you can not tolerate at this stage. Keep bites very tiny (pea size) to get yourself trained. Put the fork/spoon down between bites to slow yourself down. Things do get better with time after a good fill.

I find that if I eat solid food in the morning I am ravenous all day long and I either overeat or am miserable the whole day. Don't ask me why but it happens every time. I need to wait several hours before I eat. My fill dr said that I should drink a Protein Shake in the mornings to wake up my metabolism. I have been doing that since my fill last Wednesday and have lost a pound a day since then. I know it won't last like this but it is great right now!

It all depends...on the things mentioned above, such as your eating habits or you could be to tight. If I couldn't eat at all I would rethink getting a little tiny unfill. I am not hungry in the morning but I force myself to have some form of Protein, such as eggbeaters. I have to eat very slowly and carefully but this sustains me for many hours. lunch is practically nonexistent for me. For dinner I split a chicken breast, yam and some veggies with my husband. Again, all very slowly and carefully or else I end up in the bathroom Pbing and sliming. My point is that yes, I am tight, and have restriction, but I can eat. And you should be able to also. Hope this helps! Best wishes! ps. I can guzzle Water just fine.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
