I've lost my manners

My family....the only ones that know I had the surgery.....think nothing of my sliming now. One kid will come into the kitchen and say wheres Mom and the other responds...she is sliming, she will be back in a minute!!

We should make bibs with the catch pocket at the bottom like the babies have that say slime happens instead of spit happens!!!!! Throw that on during dinner....and never have to leave the table!!!LOL

You guys crack me up!

Y'all are sooo funny. I think my co-workers are looking at me like I'm crazy because I'm in my office laughing (alone!) :Banane30:

I have only been tight enough to get stuck once and that was while I was getting the fill (applesauce wouldn't go down) - I thought I was going to drown in my own spit.

I spit food into paper napkins when I know it's not going to go down well and I'm a burpin' fool now!

Yea Band!!:heh:

I was visiting with my grandkids last week and the daughter-in-law had cooked dinner (thats unusual in itself) I had taken a bite of garlic bread...chew chew chew...woops....a HAIR! ! ! ! Out came the whole bite with a 12in hair attached. DIL almost threw up, I apologized, but it was HER hair. Gag me, thats what I got for trying to eat bread!

I am beginning to exeprience the PB thing too. things get stuck as I often go back to old habits of chowing stuff down. I am beginning to learn as I am new to this. well its nice to know I cant just pig out anymore with a nasty burp. It has happened to me during staff meetings. I know its going to get worse when i get more fills. only one fill so far. FUN!

OMG...great thread.

Yes, I know the feeling. All I can think of is the movie The Fly, when Jeff Goldblum regurgitated his food..and then looked over and said.."Oh, that was gross, wasn't it".....lol.

I don't even think anything of it anymore.

Non-bandsters get really grossed out when I tell them about the PB'ing.

Also, I do some pretty weird stuff to my food when I'm eating...like just picking the top layer off a piece of pizza or just eathing the crust.

I went to a wedding this weekend and a friend who does not know about the band starting actually yelling at me.."Eat your Food". She just thought I was probably preoccupied or something and I needed to start eating.

OH well.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
