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!

*chuckles* I know, I know.. its not funny. But Kim you are so bullheaded girl! *hugs*

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.....
