Help! I've overeaten



Recommended Posts

It's the first time and I'm feeling the pain really bad in my tummy. It feels like that constipated pain you get when you haven't gone for like a week but of course I'm not constipated.

Is there any way to make the pain go away fast? Please, I'm dying over here.

Seriously? That's all I can do, walk it off? That's what I'm doing right now. How long will this last?

I ate 3/4 of a pancake like a dummy. Never again, never again!!!!

Aside from throwing it up that's the only thing i can think of... I know that today I had some sushi and I got too full and the only thing I could do was wait it out...I felt that sushi was mushy enough to eat but I think I was wrong...Sorry you feel bad but I think we all go through it so we can learn what to eat and how much to eat...Good luck hope you feel better soon...

I would drink a lot of Water to wash it down. I ate guacamole and tortilla Soup (without the tortilla) tonight at Chevy's and I was really uncomfortable even though they were technically mushies. I drank water when I got home and felt better. It washed down. I am not letting my family take me out to eat anymore....or bring home ice cream. We all learn lessons.

Sometimes a drink of soda with fizz can cause an airbubble under the food and make you pb.

But I find tremendous relief in laying on the floor and arching my back up off the floor. This stretches everything out and can give me enough push to make the food move...

I haven't had stomach pain from overeating since being banded. If I overeat it hurst much higher up - where the band is. Just wondering how you can feel the pain in your stomach as normally the band lets you know before you get to that point.

A warm shower or SIPPING hot tea sometimes helps me.

Thanks everybody. I'm feeling much better today. Never again will I try eat pancakes. I didn't know it would be like bread in my stomach. I was fine until I got home 30 min laters and drank some Water. Then it was utter pain for 2 hours. It decreased once I began to stay on my feel. I didn't know pancakes could do that. I ate about 3/4 of one which I never do. I've stuck to my post op and now first fill diet to the max. Just one hiccup that I don't plan on testing again.

It was probably the drink on top of the pancake that caused the pain. Backed up your plumbing and couldn't get through. Your oesophagus is not meant to have stuff sitting in it, that causes pain :-(

Welcome to the steep part of the learning curve!!

I can only eat pancakes that are really thin and slightly crispier than normal, or crepes are fine for me.

Cornmeal pancakes or buckwheat pancakes are not a problem for me. And god bless america for sugar free pancake syrup! lol

You will learn over time if your band is too tight to allow any type of bread product type things for that day. It took me about 6 months to learn to know this. Its just a tight sensation in my tummy, not pain, just a tightness. Those are the days I know Buster is gonna give me problems if I eat anything other Protein and some veggies. I still cant eat potatoes or rice. But sometimes I can tolerate a few french fries or hashbrowns. But I can eat sweet potato fries with no problems.

Zen,

I love sushi but found it's too fibrous for me.

I just started "real" food on Friday and we had pancakes over the weekend... our 11 year old made them (and made gorgeous pancakes... I'm quite proud) and I had about 3/4 of one and knew instantly it was a mistake. PB, slime, all of it... hurt all day long. Friggin pancakes!!!

pancakes are rough...i think they get gummed up in there...lol. Generally drinking something when you are stuck makes things worse.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
