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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
