Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Chew and Spit? OK this is kinda gross but I wondered if anyone else does this. I chew up food and then spit it out if it doesn't break down in my mouth to the right consistency. I don't know why, but if it isn't the right consistency I just don't want to swallow it- I think I am afraid it will make me sick. Today I did it really bad eating popcorn, melted cheese, and with some chili meat..... It's so gross, but I just can't stop it. I wondered if anyone else does this or has done this and knows how to stop!! (aside from not eating since that's not really an option! LOL)

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Ya I have done that as well, I think like you said I am afraid of swallowing it thinking that it may get stuck. It is probably one of those mind things.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I've done it on occasion, if I'm eating something and I can tell it's just not going to break down. Usually I don't keep doing it, just once I continued, it was the corned beef on St Patricks day, I really really wanted to have some but the meat was a little tough, but tasty.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    | I've done that a couple of times, when I was only a few months out. I'd heard stories of people eating green grapes, and the membranes causing blockages. So, I would crunch the grapes in my mouth, suck down the liquid, and spit out the grape carcas. Satisfied the flavor I wanted. BTW, grapes and pineapple are the worst fruits you can have due to high sugar content.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Yes I do that too. I do that with oranges becasue I am afraid of the stuff that is around the juice, that is going to get stuck in my stricture, so I suck out the juice and spit out the rest and I also do that when I eat fryed beefs liver, becasue there is a few harder pieces that do not chew up and I will spit it out and same thing with steaks, it does not break up the way it is suppose to, I will spit it out because I am afraid of getting things stuck in my stricture. When I first started doing it my husband wondered what was wrong with the food and when I explained it to him, he is now use to seeing a pile of stuff I spit out on my plate. He hates to see me get sick or espically throwing up.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I wish I had a nickel for every thing I thought I could eat and decided differently half way thru!!! You can't possible know whether or not you'll find something (gristle, fat, etc) until you chew for a bit.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Yes- I do it with oranges and meat a lot! I think some of it has become a habit, like I chew out the flavor and just get rid of the rest. Ick! At least I know I am not the only one that does it- and my poor hubby as the weakest stomach and can't stand to see me do it, even discreetly! (poor thing threw up as much as me when I was pregnant! LOL)
