how many times have u PBed?

Im just curious its happened to me twice so far... and im like freaked out bc obbbvvviiously i dont want it to happen that often bc i know its bad for u.

The two times it has happened it seemed like i was was toally in "old habit" overdrive mode (eating too quickly not chewing well enough ect ect)...its suchhhhh a hard habit to break but everytime! BUT everytime i get a PB im freaaaaaked not to ever let it happen again...so it makes me think more while im eating (so maybe its a hard lesson a bandster has to go thru in order to chang the habbit).

Just wanted to see if its happened to people more then once...and what are some of there suggestions as to stay focused while eating!

P.s,, My slimes are never something that has to happen.. they do not happen uncontrollably,.... I make them happen. I spit up cuz I want to, Not cuz my body is forcing me to..

I dont know if thats necessary info or not..

sounds like your 1st pbing was food, barium, Water or mucus, that came up, and the 2nd one your band is tight in the morning and you should sip some water or tea-coffee b4 taking your meds,

I thought that Pbing was when u spit up the food you just ate and it has slime on it and sometimes its just slim and water build up.

I've been banded for 3yrs so I could be wrong any other suggestions.....

Chill, I'm sorry to hear about this. Mine doesn't seem like it is something I do on purpose, but I can see where I am happy about it sometimes and how that could lead to worse problems. I had a bad episode last night so I will be on liquids for a few days. I am actually backing up on water today, so I know I am way tight. I hope having the unfill will help with the anorexia. It is a scary disease. Thank goodness you saw what you were doing and had the unfill to work on getting healthy. Good luck and let us know your progress.

Kim,

Thanks for the advise, I realized what I was doing the first year, and the second year I didn't want to go thru all that throwing up and being hungry and gorging so I just didn't eat. Even though I'm 173lbs now I'm eating, trying to be healthy but did have a hamburger last night and it took a long time to eat. Yes, anorexia is scary as is bulemia too. Going to get a fill next friday probably. Don't want to go anymore backwards in my weight loss.
