Yeah...I've been doing it. I made myself sick last night because I ate too fast, too much, and something that wasn't "technically" mushie. The thing is, I'm not a puker or a slimer or a productive burper so I end up just feeling incredibly uncomfortable. I keep thinking that, if I could just have a little diet cola, I'd feel so much better.

Anyway... I guess I'm just looking for some words of encouragement (or a slap on the wrist?) from my peers.

Oh...and a question. Does everyone weigh themselves? I've been waiting to go to the doctor's office because I don't want to get obsessive about it but I guess I need to know if I'm actually losing the whole 1-2 lbs a week. Thoughts?

I avoid the scales, it causes major depression! Slimming is when your food gets stuck between your throat and band. In order for it to either go down or come back up, your body produces digestive juices..saliva, lots of it too, so you can process your food. What doesn't go down, usually comes back, in my case...the slime!
