PB stands for Productive Burp. It happens when something is eaten that can't go down due to restriction, and it has to come back up.

Slime is what your body produces when it is trying to pass something through the band. It's very thick saliva and basically it the comes up and you have to spit it out.

These things usually happen when you don't chew your food well or eat something that you are not suppose to.

Get the book Bandwagon-it has all these terms described in it! It is a great resource and a very interesting read from a person who actually wentthrough the Lapband-loaded with info!

I'm curious what "slider" foods means.
