Did you check to see if the syrups were available anywhere locally?
Did you use the Chocolate Unjury?

It sounds Yummy!
    
31 lbs. lost before surgery!  My goal is 150lbs.  My surgeon's goal is 110lbs.  I just can't imagine that weight right now.  Maybe someday . . .

awww, that doesnt sound fun. This is the first I have heard of "the foamies" lol. Putting that on the list of things to watch out for. I wish we could know what makes some people able to eat some foods and others not, there must just be inborn traits or tendencies. I bet you will be able to eat it further down the road. Hope you feel better soon.

Amazing what some of those syrups will do to a protein shake!  Glad you've found some that you like!  ENJOY!

Sometimes we learn the hard way!  Sorry this happened to you!  Give it some time and try the roast beef later on.  Sometimes, just because it doesn't go down right the first time, doesn't mean it won't be ok later on.  Let your tummy rest for the rest of the day.......lesson learned, right?  Sorry you had to go through this..............Hope you feel better soon!

Wow have I had a humbling lesson in chewing and stopping.  At around 2:30 I had a slice of roast beef (this was lunch), I probably ate it too fast and didn't chew thoroughly enough.  It didn't taste good to me when I ate it but I figured oh well.  Then I ate a teaspoon of peanut butter off a spoon.  Didn't particularly eat it fast or anything.  After that I started feeling that TOO FULL feeling right in the middle of my chest and was waiting for it to pass when it got worse and I got the foamies!  I never knew what they were but boy do I know now.  Disgusting.  Then I walked around feeling worse and worse and wishing to and finally I did...THREE TIMES...once just a second ago while I was typing this.  I am finally starting to feel a little better and I don't think I'll EVER eat roast beef again!!!  

I was hoping to be the one exception to the rule and never get sick.  Guess not.

Off to lick my wounds (and drive my kid back to school to get her social studies book, hope I don't puke in my new car)

You do sound ready.  It wasnt' as bad as I was prepared for and I'm a little over 3 weeks out.  I was able to shower the next day.  Pain wasn't bad, was off meds by the third day home and then just used them for sleep.  Keep us posted!!
You will be over on the other side with us soon!!
