It is soooo odd throwing up a big slime ball! Sometimes I sneeze or get a runny nose instead or as well. I have only had the slimes about 5 times and I HATE it and avoid it at all costs. Oddly enough the flat bread from Subway has been the culprit 3 times so I don't eat that anymore. Other than that I can handle anything!

I am about 2 months out and we’ll I tried going outside the diet, huge mistake. I ate 1 gyoza and pain instantly. I felt nauseous and though it would pass. It hurt so bad I couldn’t walk, I havent threw up since the 2nd grade which is about 30yrs. And all of a sudden a huge glob of slime came up. I still felt like crap, I walked a tad and then pain hit again, I threw up more slime thinking I’d feel better NOPE. I could feel it coming again and my stomach hurt, I threw up another ball of slime and then finally the gyoza came up and instantly felt better. Definitely not worth going outside of the diet. Lesson learned, it was the worst experience EVER.

It's over production of mucus I think. It's gross. I've had it happen to me. It's the worst with cooked broccoli for me. I spit up for 20 minutes then eventually throw up a big ball of mucus. Lovely, I know but part of all of this lol

Omg [emoji50] I just experienced the slime. Is this the same as dumping. I ate too fast



No. Dumping is a different beast although personally I think slime is worse because of the chest pain. I've dumped once since my surgery in Feb 2022. I didn't puke or go to the bathroom but I wanted to throw up. It was mainly dizziness, rapid heart beat, hot flashes, and bowel discomfort. Slimies are more focused on your esophagus I feel and usually accompanied by puking.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
