Yep, know the feeling well.
I am 15 months post and I am still getting the sticky stuff, alltho I must say that in the past month or so, I have noticed what I think is a bit of a thinning. Then again, maybe I'm just getting used to it.
If I am remembering correctly, you are taking Saligen?
Things I have noticed:
I stay away from Caffeine and soft drinks with aspartame.
Splenda sweetened stuff works fine for me.
Nothing with MSG work for me, simply drys me out for several hours.
Your mileage will vary, the key is experimentation and try to develop the patterns to the stuff that affects you.
I will say, it's MUCH better than the alternative !
