100LBS GONE! And anyone else have vapor lock?

  • Popular Post

100lbs Gone since the beginning of this, and 62lbs down since the surgery. So far, so good. Wondering though if anyone else has issues with what I call vapor lock when drinking. It's where you take too big a sip on something and you end up with it sticking around in your chest for a bit.

As for chest pain after drinking, I usually only get it after eating, but I know the feeling you are talking about! I would just suggest taking smaller sips and slowing down a little bit to confirm "no pain" before you start drinking again.

CONGRATS again!!!

Congrats on your weight loss. Some people can guzzle down liquids others can’t. I can’t. I only experience that pain if I drink too fast or try to swallow too big a mouthful - usually when I’m not thinking about what I’m doing. I can take 2 sips at a time at most & then I have to put my glass down & wait before I have another.

Nice work on losing 100!!!!
