Well the perfect recovery with nothing causing irritation to my sleeve stopped today! I can drink fast I can eat anything so far yet today I got some chicken very thinly sliced and it came with now tie pasta I was wanting a little energy and since nothing had bothered me, I ate some! And oh my word! I thought I was going to die! I threw up 6 times everything got stuck and I couldn't breathe! There is a silver lining I'm a carb addict I truly believe it was a slap on the hand and I well scared the crap out of myself! Anyone else have this happen? Could I have hurt my sleeve? I now know I have a sleeve and it doesn't like everything! Feedback? Yes I was Sleeved 1/14! To soon?

Oh yeah. Rice...a show stopper for me. I can have a couple of kernels peppered in a juicy mix of veggies and meat, but a spoonful of Rice...will get stuck and cause a very uncomfortable uproar. Soft squishy bread or Desserts same thing. It is a blessing quite frankly. I used to be able to eat my weight (formerly 60 lbs more than today) in bread, Pasta, rice, chips, popcorn...all the things I love and often crave. NOW...nothin' doin! I cannot tolerate it in any real quantity. Now I realize that the carb high is/was what I was/am addicted to. So now that I cannot gorge myself to the point of the high, I tend to avoid it or at least limit my exposure. Its weird, like now that I can't eat as much of it, it doesn't have the same appeal to eat just a bite or two, therefore I don't usually bother. I am so grateful for my tool...it has been the most effective thing I have ever done for my weight loss goals and attempts to be healthier. Good luck finding your limits and I hope you learn faster than I do.

stacie

Im three months out and still terrified to try rice, pasta, or bread. Add popcorn to that too...

I tried some canned green Beans today, green beans!!! And it made a guest appearance in 5 seconds flat!!! So I had a smoothie, ooooh did it taste delicious after that horrid experience! Just when you think you're ready......bam!

Man I wanted something smooth too but was so afraid to put anything in me

I hear you!

I have learned a smoothie is my "go to food", I haven't gotten sick from them "yet", and I hope it stays that way! My mind is so ready to eat soft foods, my stomach is the exact opposite. I feel like it wants me on liquids forever lol. Fruit smoothies and yogurt (and my mind is so tired of yogurt haha). If I see another premier Protein shake its going to make an appearance too. I just finished the box.....I won't be buying another for a LONG time!

Sorry you had to go through that, hopefully the next time won't be as memorable .

Do you make them of get them from Kamba juice or something?

Be careful with Kamba Juice....I tried a smoothie from our local place and it made me so terribly sick I couldn't believe it.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Kamba! Well you get my point! Lol!!!!!

My surgeon said Jamba is way to high in sugar an may make you I'll..
