When I eat certain things and then I got sick.. Think maybe I didn't chew well ? Maybe I should not eat this anymore?? Thoughts and experiences please..

This is a big topic with a zillion possible answers.

First of all, what do you mean by "upper stomach"? Do you mean your upper abdomen (under your breasts) or your upper stomach (between your breasts)?

Getting sick (or what we call a PB - productive burp or regurgitation) can be the result of many things. The food might not agree with you, or may need to be cooked differently (moist is always better). Maybe you took bites that were too big, ate too fast, didn't chew well enough? I wouldn't ditch a food altogether based on an early experience of an eating problem with it, but the next time you eat that food, pay very, very close attention to your eating skills. If you still have a problem, then you'll need to set that food aside, at least for a while.

Different bandsters can tolerate different foods at many different stages (and times of day, and times of month) of the WLS journey. You might be able to eat a piece of toasted bread tonight, but not tomorrow morning. So, proceed with caution!

Most of my problems like that have happened when I didn't chew long enough. Now, when I'm ready to swallow, I keep chewing for at least another 15-30 seconds. Especially if I know it's a troublesome texture.
