I had the same thing just last week after a bout with a stomach virus. It was so bad I could not keep even water down. Finally 2 days ago I saw my doctor & he took all the water out of my balloon. he says my vomiting with the stomach virus probably caused the band to slip. I had an upper gi today & will go see him again next week, I am scared to death he will have to leave the water out or else I will need another surgery.

i have been really struggling after my last fill, as a result i get the foam quite often , more so in the morning than evening. i should get it relaxed but the weight loss is good. if you recently had a fill this may be the cause

Its just saliva mixed with air, nothing to worry about. It is probably indicating that you've eaten to much or not chewed properley as your body produes extra saliva to try and slide the food through.

elcee is 100% correct ...... the dreaded foamy slime!

This has happened to me when I eat too much, don't chew well, or eat foods I can no longer tolerate after being banded and have restriction.
