Experiencing My 1St "stuck" Episode



Recommended Posts

What does PBing mean??

PBing is called Productive Burp. It's when well kind of like throwing up. When I get stuck I salivate, slime and finally start PB'ing or bringing up food, the feeling of like a burp but only food comes up without trying, does this make sense? And yes sometimes it results in me finally throwing up because I'm gagging at the sight of it all. During a stuck episode some people salivate excessively, pass a slime mess or thick spit, gross I know but true. Hope this helps. Not a pretty sight but it's what happens.

Had my first episode on Sunday with a piece of toast. I couldn't breathe and thought I was having a heart attack. I just paced around the house in a panic. I was scared because it was just me and my 4 year old daughter at home. After about 2 minutes of gasping I started projectile vomiting. There was no control. It just flew out of my mouth. I will chew every bite a million times now. Also, I think things with too much bulk or density are not going to work for me. Maybe ever. Lesson learned hard.

You just have to remember to chew until you have true mush before you swallow. Take your time and wait between bites. I chew really well, but have a hard time waiting between bites. It really takes a lot of concentration.

Been there done that and NO FUN. Note for future, many people have difficulty eating bread so you may not be able to have toast.

Not the most low fat way but I can handle toast buttered and toasted on both sides in a skillet and toasted, can't do bread raw though, no can do, no no no.

Same thing happened to me!! Cinnamon toast, didn't chew enough but had never had a stuck feeling. I did like you, paced around the house, stood near the bathroom in case of vomiting, thankfully I didn't. Cereal with milk hates me too, I think it's the solid/liquid combo. Basically Breakfast time is Protein shake time, I just have to live with it.

If you are on real foods and can't eat solid food for Breakfast, you need to rethink where you are with fills. I had pot roast and carrots this morning! You will never be satisfied drinking breakfast in the long run. Talk to your NUT about the foods you are eating so you can be eating things long term.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
