FOAMIES???? Still, after almost 7 months??

Hi, Just a quick (ha ha) question here. I have had the "foamies" (kind of vomiting foam.. after eating...) probably happens every 3-4 days. At first, I blamed it on gall bladder problems, or eating too fast, or the wrong things. I had my GB out 3 weeks ago, and it has subsided somewhat. My doc says everything is OK (doesn't happen often enough to warrant a scope), and other times I just feel fine. Does any one else get this? Am I just eating too fast? I have lost about 85 lbs. so far, and do not regret this surgery at all. Other than this problem, I feel fantastic! Just looking for other's situations. DianeC.

Diane; The only time I get foamies now is when I eat too fast or eat too much. Try slowing down. That will solve it if it's either too fast or too much. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 169 / 137

Thanks Jennifer, You look fantastic!! Diane

Aww...Thanks! More importantly, I feel fantastic.

I have the lapband and this phenomenon is called "sliming". It happens when we eat too fast, don't chew well enough, or take too big of a bite. I did not know that bypassers also slimed.

I only got that the one time I got home really hot and thirsty and too huge a gulp of diet coke; WATERFALL!!! I just passed the 100 lb mark after 6 months! All the best, Shalom LeVine

i get this also, sometimes i will everyweek and sometimes it may be every two weeks, but it seems to be when i eat to fast for things with fat in them. i hate it but still dont regret the surgey. my surgery was nov 14 2006. best of luck.

Hi Toni, I don't regret a moment either!!! The best thing I've ever done for myself! I've been eating slowly and chewing a LOT, I've felt better in the last couple of days. Best of luck! Diane
