Last nite we had a fight party... Well I guess I got overwhelmed with friends and I ate stuff I normally would not but in a small amount since I can not eat much as I used to. I had 3-4 meatballs, a Lil spinach dip, 1 wing and some pulled pork and I had 2 glasses of sangria wine. This was all between the hours of 830-2 am and that's it!! well this am I was very nauseated and had to RUN to the bathroom . I was gagging and after 30 minutes I vomited greasy stuff that burns my throat. I bow have diarrheA and horrible stomach cramps. I am praying I don't miss up my band. I am 3 1/2 weeks post op... PLEASE HELP

well dont feel bad i had a slice of pizza last night and i was so angry with myself. Nothing happened i didnt vomit or anything. I am 1 1/2 weeks out of surgery. I was just feeling fainting spells and i just needed something strong to boost me up.

Must have been the full moon. I have my first fill this week and I didn't cheat till last night. pizza one slice. Felt mad about it after but today I

I'm ok I still was around 1000 cals for the day. I'm down 26 lbs as of last weigh in last week. Trying not to go crazy about the scale. Will be back on the wagon today

We all slip up sometimes! The vomiting is not a good thing for your band though. I would just get back to following the rules your doctor gave you. Do liquids today to give your stomach a rest. If you are not able to get liquids down or just don't feel right definitely call your doctor. Good Luck!

How are far out from surgery are you? Almost sounds like food poisoning since you are getting it from both ends. Depending on what time you got up food would have moved through the pouch in about 5 hours. So vomiting would be comming from the stomach and not the pouch; and diarrhea means something has made it's way through the digestive systm.

Agree with honk.

By 3 1/2 weeks I was on regular foods with no restrictions. YOUR post-op instructions may be different, however. I just say that to let you know that the foods probably did not hurt the band.

The vomiting is of more concern for a new band.

I would say do liquids today, if you cannot get liquids down, call your surgeon's office and ask what you should do, being Sunday it will most likely be the answering service, but someone should be on-call. Explain you were vomiting and can't keep liquids down.

I hope this doesn't sound mean, but now you know what happens when you eat the old way! And believe me, I also learned the hard way. Take it easy on liquids for a few days. And the diarrhea, etc. is probably because you haven't eaten these types of foods for a long time, so try not to worry. Keep yourself hydrated and get back on your eating plan!

Thanx everyone... I am feeling much better. Still a Lil diarrhea but no more vomiting. I have went back to liquids only. My only concern was not damaging my band but like I said I only threw up greasy stuff no food and it happened 5 hours after I ate. I know now that this is a real lifestyle change and I'm committed to a healthy life. Thanx again for all the advice and I realize I have to change my habits and way of thinking

Go easy on yourself...you have to look at the BIG Picture!

It's the old everyday habits and the old lifestyle that will change eventually.

People say they "Slipped Up" as though we were on a diet like weight watchers or something, well it's not. It's all about the band.

Thanx b52 for the excellent advice
