Too funny! The noises that come out of my throat and tummy are definetly annoying at times.. Especially when I am in a quiet meeting hahaha! Still prefer all the little annoyances over that 100 lb sack of blubber I was carrying around :)

Every time I eat I get those burps in my throat it's so annoying to say the least :(

How far along are you? I'm 5 weeks and that use to happen to me too. But I kept going. I don't remember when maybe last week but throat problem is gone still burping but I notice when I slow down less burping! The sounds aren't to loud so IDK LOL.

I just took two bites of lunch (ricotta bake, no mozzarella, pureed lean hamburger), and got what I think you guys call the "slimes."

Is that what you call it when you feel like you have an elephant in your esophagus, your mouth fills with saliva, you feel like you're gonna hurl, and you have to spit about five times?

Benjiboi, that sounds AWFUL!! Haven't had them.

Danielle, it goes away, try to eat slower. That seems to help me.

foam and slime? I've never heard of this until I joined this forum. How to avoid? 5 1/2 weeks out and haven't seen anything like that.

Take small bites, chew it good and eat slowly. Don't overeat. You'll know it when (if) it happens!

I just started eating today!!! Did good till dinner.

Ate too much, too fast, of both. I'm spitting slimy foamy mucous and food.

I'm not happy right now!!!

OK, I'm no longer a virgin; I just vomited after I too quickly swallowed three baby spoon bites of pumpkin/squash souffle, and then took one sip of Lifewater to "wash it down."

There's no more "washing that bump of food down" happening, is there?

Had the same problem but it has gotten better. I slowed down my eating and it seems to be subside. Still get it from time to time when I eat fast or too much. Just learn to listen to your body, slow down and stop eating when you start feeling that gurgle in your throat. Worked for me.

Foamies/Slimies - same thing as far as I'm concerned. Happens pretty quickly after I eat too fast or too much. It happened last week after one bite - I said one bite of buffalo wing that was dipped in ranch dressing. As soon as I swallowed it, the foamies came. I was at the bowling alley too and was scared to death I wouldnt make it to the bathroom but I did, through up slimy spit, then went back to bowl.

I stopped eating while bowling in my league. I stopped eating at work also because of getting the foamies. I use that time at work to get my 64 ounces of Water in and drinking my Isopure (grape flavored) Protein drink (40 g protein!). I'll snack on Peanut Butter, pieces of cheese, boiled eggs but thats about it at work. For a real meal, I eat at home - just in case!!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
