what to eat and how soon can you eat after you throw up



Recommended Posts

I decided on some sourcream chips which I bought Friday. I haven't eaten potato chips in like forever. Well after about the fourth chip. I did it! Yep, I slimed and pb'd. My first time ever! oh no, oh yes...............Now here's my question. I'm ready to eat, but how soon after the yucky stuff can I eat....and what can I eat...a shake?

I'm bad and woulda ate another chip just smaller bites(pencil eraser sized) if I wanted them. There are no hard rules what you can or cannot have after a stuck episode. It's what your body can handle. I try not to get too stuck where I can't eat all day. It's really never happened but I can get stuck easily(and chips would do it) but I can put a couple in my palm and that's it for me and eat in small bites. But I figure a palm of chips is better than the whole bag(what I could have easily done prior to LB)

Oh and my vice are cheetos and the small .99 bag is 3 servings easy for me. I keep them in the console of my car(who knows why), I also stash my minature chocolates when I just have to have them. I think I keep there because if they were in the house I would eat them. In the car is too much effort.

I had quite a few times I have been too tight over the course of my journey. I would usually have a shake about 2 hours after the episode and then try a meal a few hours after that. If your consistanly throwing up I would get a slight unfill. I hesitated to do that and suffered needlessly. I was afraid an unfill would make me very hungry- they didn't.

Ditto what Bobbie said. In the rare instance when I get stuck and have to urp up the offending item, I get a glass of hot Water and sip on it. It helps relax the band area...or at least that's how it appears to me.

I'm bad then...when I get stuck,slim and throw up I just go back and finish my meal. It usually happens because I took to big of bites and didnt chew well. I was told that after a stuck episode you should do liquids for 1 day to help any inflammation go away that may have been caused by throwing up...I dont do that obviously....

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
