Never again...

so I now know why we drink slowly.. went out to lunch today everything was fine jsut ate part of a chicken breast no problems .. about 3 hrs later I was thirsty I drank some of my diet tea I had picked up well I was drinking thru and straw and drank too much too fast.. and well you guessed it about a mn later I am pulling over into Sunuco parking lot , and throwing up .. oh my lord the tea came out and all my lunch.. uggh so my tummy is resting tonight.. I will def make sure I am paying attention to how fast I am drinking that was awful..

Boycot the straws..this is hard for me. I can't stand eating out and not using a straw but I have gotten use to it. It puts way to much air into your pouch not to mention causing you to drink to much. I remember the days I would finish off 4 glasses of sweet tea while I ate. lol
I am still trying to break the not drinking when eating. Its very hard for me. I try to just sip. But nothing for 30 mins before or after..I cant do it.
I bet the chicken breast tasted yummy..I can't wait to be able to enjoy regular food again. I have discovered different chills but there is only so much soup and chill one can eat. lol
Best of luck and hope you are feeling better now.

Chrusty nailed it - ditch the straw. My surgeon's office actually puts it in their hand book - no straws until at least a year out. THey introduce too much air to the pouch and allow you to take too big of sips. I am 3 years out and just now started using them occasionally without a problem. Mostly to feed my pregnancy cravings of chick-fil-a diet lemonade! lol

Yup - no straws!

no straws the first year

thank you all trust me never again I learned the hard way my pouch was soo not happy.. I have been doing so well with no drinking 30 mins before or after and yesterday I was out shopping with my family and feeling good cause I wasnt getting that too tired I have to sit feeling except I forgot to drink.. so when got in the car I slurped it thru the straw which before that I was taking the lid off .. as soon as I got sick I kinew what I had done LOL.

so trust me never ever again LOL
