Yuck, had my first slim experience today

Omg, that is awful. I have gotten stuck before, or so I thought, until this morning. I was driving back from texas this morning and wanted to get something quick that didnt have alot of calories, so I got a sausage burrito from mcdonalds. Figured I eat half of it. Took a small bite, went down fine. Took the next and tnat was it. Thought I would die, had to pull over and finally had to force myself to bring it up. Yuck. Never want to do that again. Should of know better than to have that anyway, and to do it while driving was not the smartest move. Ended up with just a protein drink for the rest of the drive.

wanted to get something quick that didnt have alot of calories,

Unfortunately this is a recipe for disaster. The wanting something quick often ends up causing problems. Plus the fact you said you had to pull over means you were eating and driving so you obviously weren't concentrating on small bites, chewing well, and eating slowly. Trying to save that extra 5 minutes often doesn't work as you found out. If you have to get fast food at least stop and eat it, don't try eating and driving at the same time.There is nothing worse than being stuck or sliming when in the car and you have nowhere to throw up.

Sorry that you had such a horrible experience.

Oh, I learned my lesson. Ive trying to be so careful since getting filled last week. But that was just plain stupid. ;)

When I am not paying attention when I am eating is always when I get stuck. It sucks- but it is a learning experience

You poor thing! How scary for you! Why do we sometimes have to learn the hard way?! Glad you are OK. Good luck on both journies!

Some bandsters keep ziplock baggies in their cars for such occasions. I made a no eating while driving rule years ago. It's really horrible. I hate seeing people eat while driving--just ugh! Ok, pet-peeve complaint over.

But, for us, it is really a recipe for disaster.
