instantaenous PB



Recommended Posts

OK, I have plans to be the "model" bandster, so in theory I should NEVER pb, but pobody's nerfect.

Y'all are scaring me to death with these stories of carrying around "spit cups" and hurling on your new clothes!

Tell me that this is the exception and not the rule PLEASE!

I think it's the exception - I've PB'd once so far (OK I've only been banded over a month) but I knew when I swallowed that piece of chicken that it was way too big and I hadn't chewed enough. I had more than enough time to get to the bathroom and I had just started to eat so there wasn't much to come back up. I had a small bowl of chili for lunch today (yummy!) and I was fine, cause I chewed chewed chewed. It may boil down to how sensitve your stomache was before. I use to be able to eat everything, never a sign of heartburn or indigestion (of course maybe if I did I wouldn't have gained so much weight) so the band for me is a restriction, my appetite is much less as is my capacity to eat but so far nothing seems to bother me as long as I chew it to death.

These stories are so funny!

I am at a month now and no PB yet.. I chew real well and I am so scared of feeling that feeling I felt in the hospital.. (horses trompling on my chest)

I am going to get a fill in April I hope..

I've been banded nearly 6 months and have probably pb'd 4-5 times, and always knew it was coming. Saliva starts getting abundant and thick like slime, and you have to spit it out, don't swallow it! I've never not felt it coming, and usually kind of help myself cough it up in order to get it over with. I've yet to have one come up without warning.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
