Sliming 80% of the time..too tight?



Recommended Posts

If you are sliming about 80% of the time after taking 1-2 small bites, would you consider this a sign of being to tight?

I absolutely would say you have a problem. Have you had a fill recently that has started this whole process?

Sorry if I put this in the wrong forum.

I had a fill (somewhat aggressive) about 6 weeks ago. After 2 weeks in I feel like I slime 80% of the time after 1-2 small bites.

This makes me rely on going to soft/sliders/liquids. Eating Protein seems difficult. Because of this , my hunger is not being satisfied for 3-4 hours. Seems like I am getting hungry every hour & i been grazing though out the day.(making weight loss difficult) Im going back tomorrow & going to request taking out .5 cc. Maybe then I can get some Protein in & have satisfied hunger for longer than an hour. Guess this is a fine tuning for the green zone.

This sounds like the red zone -- I would get a small unfill immediately.

It's in the right forum now?

Yeah, you sound like you're too tight? What kind of slider foods can you consume safely? I usually ask people to open a can of Progresso or Campbell beef, veggie and barley Soup. If you can get this down easily you're not too tight. This is about the consistency you need to be chewing to. I chew Soup to this day but never get stuck on it.

Now, bread and sandwiches, minor stuck episodes 50% of the time. Tonight, overdone chicken bruschetta and a small stuck/slime episode. For me, it's eating too fast and big that brings on the sliming/stuck episodes.

Overly tight bands can cause a lot of damage. Don't sit on this for very long?

Yes, don't wait to get some Fluid removed. Sounds like you're in the danger zone.

Had to have .5cc removed due to coughing and sliming a bit but that seems to have helped.

      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.

      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! 😞
