Slimes= really horrible gross slimy saliva. It doesn't stop forever. Makes you feel like you are gonna puke. It sucks! Lol

The slimes for me, like Sass said, just a ton of saliva building up in my throat, swallow it down, twice as much comes back. The best way I can put it...its like taking a raw oyster (or a ball of snot) and letting it slide down your throat. It's pretty gross.

I was a BIG drinking while eating person. I learned real quick I had to stop. I watch the clock, and 30 minutes after I'm done eating, I'm good to go.

Lol! Yeah, it's gross. When I get the slimes, I have to throw it up. For me, it's like a small ball of food, encased in a mucas substance. It happens when I eat too fast, eat too much, or try and drink to close to eating.

Someone said cottage cheese helps or having a orange to suck or some apple sauce helps but who really eats apple sauce or oranges with a steak lol I thought about a fruit cup after eating but drinking the juice might be cheating just a little bit :) I'm a hard core drinker and eater I only drink when I eat infact so I'm looking for desperate ways to solve this when it comes time for surgery

      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.

        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!
