Envelope glue made me sick :(

This is such an unusual thing that happened to me tonight. I've been feeling pretty good, restriction wise now for probably a good 7 or 8 months, no throwing up, sliming, etc., but still feeling the reality check of my band.

We're working on sending out Christmas cards, and I was licking the envelopes to seal them (which I usually don't do because I use tape at work, and these actually tasted ok.) Anyway, about half an hour later, I got that horrible "stuck" feeling and ended up getting sick in the bathroom. Not fun.

Anyway, needless to say, I will NEVER lick envelopes ever again!!

Awww! Sorry you got sick! :(   That reminded me of a Seinfield eposide where a woman died from licking too many envelopes.

246 in Dec 2008 before banded 1/28/09 at 215 lbs, band crapped 9/09 at 170 lbs and struggled with it and regained to 203 revised to bypass on 8/1/11 and am very happy.

I was just telling my husband tonight that I was glad that the bank has gone envelope-less for deposits because the glue makes me feel nauseated every time.

I thought of Seinfeld to........George's fiance died from licking the envelopes for their wedding invitations because they were cheap and came "from the back of the book"  Too funny!
