My first "SLIME" in Cancun!!!



Recommended Posts

So, I'm on a trip for work to Cancun.... Sitting in the restaraunt with the nice white table cloths - eating the dry chicken and fish I was explicitly told not to eat. Just had surgery a while ago and assumed that all restriction was gone..... NOT!!!!!!!

Feel a tremendous pressure in my chest and remember everyone's stories about being out to eat at a restaurant and either sitting near the bathroom, or carrying a zip lock bag "just in case". I had neither. I quickly excuse myself from the table and run outside the restaurant and hide behind a stack of chairs. I'm feeling rather ill and know I can't throw up... this is not an option because I don't want to screw up my new band. Deep breaths - then, what's this???? liquid starts pouring out of my mouth.... I hear a cart and footsteps coming around the corner and think frantically - what to do now???? Run down the sidewalk toward the beach... this seems to make me feel better, so I keep doing it. After 10 minutes or so I feel better and decide to go back in. Needless to say, I sent my plate away and opted for the irish coffee instead.... was this a good idea? who knows, but it seemed to work.

Anyway - I am assuming this was my first slime, so thought I'd share.... :)

Night all!

Kim make sure you use something to lubricate that dry stuff, it really helps. When I am somewhere that I can't make a choice I always order some ranch dressing on the side to dip it in. :)

:faint:

Ok, of all the advice you have been giving me!!!! Luckily, with all the crap I have been eating I have not had this pleasure yet. Of course I have not tried real meat yet. I have had the golf ball in my chest thing though.

Sorry to hear about your experience. I hope you were ok quickly after that and it did not ruin your night.

Take care kimmy girl!

Hey Jack - No worries - I'm off dry chicken and salmon forever. Don't want to do that again! I had no problems up until that point and really thought I could eat whatever I wanted until my first fill (provided that I chewed enough). Just not the case though! UGH! I'll be more careful now! It was kind of funny though - thinking back on what that must've looked like. The girls eating dinner with me found it hillarious.

Betty - Good idea on the ranch. I'll keep that in the back of my head. Sticking to soft stuff now though when I'm out to dinner I think :-).

Kim & Sus - I know, I know.....

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
