Read at your own risk!!!

More than a year after surgery and life is pretty good... I have had my band slightly unfilled, because I was "puking" so much. Now it only happens a couple times a week.

Well, last night was one of those times and I happened to be in the CAR! I had eaten some crackers in haste before leaving work and obviously they didn't sit well with me.

In the car, I had an empty diet coke can (yes, I drink diet coke and my Dr. said it's fine for me since it doesn't make me sick.)

Since I had no where to "slime" up what was making me sick, I got sick into the empty can.

Well, this morning in my sleepy, non-caffeinated haze, I was driving to work. I opened another can of diet coke (my morning drink of choice) and then a moment later, grabbed the WRONG can and took a sip!!!

OMG! I still feel the grossness on my lips. I did not swallow and it didn't actually enter my mouth, but OMG it was the most disgusting thing I could imagine doing!

Some of the side effects of the band are really intolerable... this is one of them! :tongue2:

At least it wasnt Copenhagen.Thats a real possibility with me.

Ewww, lol. I have had a problem in the car a couple of times . . . but never almost reingested it, lol.

I keep an empty soda cup in the car for emergencies.

:redface: Thanks for a great laugh!!

Fireman, I almost drank out of my uncle's spit cup when I was a little girl. Thought it was soda from afar. ewwww....

The dog poop bags is a great idea, I am going to pick some up from the dog park next time I go. I have actually had to pull over before and open my car door to let it out because I didn't have anything

I do the coffee cup thing as well. I'm "lucky" I guess that I live in a very cold climate and my ..coffee.. freezes overnight if I forget to throw it out. Very Gross topic! love it! lol
