So I was banded back in April 2010.... losing appropriately and well... ALMOST to onederland..... the past week though has been a HUGE challenge and I know I've narrowed it down but I don't GET IT!

Milk and OJ have ALWAYS been ok.. no issues.. not a care in the world. Watching the calorie content of course but for the past week I've been sliming BADLY whenever I drink milk or OJ.... I eat my normal meal then a few hours later it was a cup of oj and then milk before bed ..

Anyone else had a similar issue post banding and post healing? I know my band isn't too tight because solid foods I can handle.. but this so off the wal... I went straight to H2O this am and the sliming stopped!

Argh!

it may be because its 2 cold and sometimes the band doesnt handle cold drinks well at leats mine doesnt ... try letting it sit out for a little while be4 drinking and see if that helps

Yeah, I thought that too... so I warmed the milk... and nope same thing... The OJ well I even tried mixing it with vodka to see... LMAO nope....

::sigh:: So now i'm not touching them for awhile. It's just gunna be one of those quirks I have to live with

Orange juice and lemonade are the two drinks that travels very slow for me. I don't slime but I noticed I can feel it going down and it's like a gurgle before it empties into the lower part of my stomach. No problem with mild though or any other liquids.
