Vomiting, Not Pbing



Recommended Posts

Okay, so last night I went out drinking with some friends and I guess I didn't eat enough prior so I woke up with a severe hang over. I even kept really hydrated like I usually do, drank lots of Water while I was having cocktails. But, didn't work I guess. I haven't had one of these since pre-lap band, probably at least 5 years!

The nausea and vomiting lasted ALL DAY....in about 15-30 min intervals. I wanna say I threw up like 15x at least, and on top of that had a splitting headache but couldn't keep anything (even water) down. It was so nasty, yellow bile like since I didn't have anything in my stomach.

It finally went away, FINALLY after a good 7 hrs or so. I'm sipping on ramen noodle Soup, Gatorade and ice pops. Now my throat is KILLING me and my neck is so sore. While I was sipping the ramen noodle soup I ate a little bit of the noodles and didn't have any problems with getting it down so hopefully my band is fine. Just concerned cause I vomited so much. Hopefully if I take it easy on my band for the next few days all will be good.

I apologize, maybe I didn't explain that well...when I said I couldn't keep Water or anything down, I didn't mean it got stuck by the band, I meant I would throw it up because it would make me nauseous within a few minutes of ingesting it. My biggest concern is that I didn't do any damage to the band since I vomited so much. Like slippage or something.

You were lucky that you were able to vomit. I drank too much a couple of months after being banded. Woke up in the middle of the night and tried to make myself vomit as usually that would help to make me feel better quicker. Needless to say i couldn't. It was the most horrible feeling.

The positive part of that is I now try extra hard not to imbibe too much alcohol as I know how awful I will end up feeling.

Hopefully your band is OK> I would baby it for a few days to give it a break and hopefully let it settle.

Ya I think that's why I vomited so many times, because my band would only let a very little bit each time. By far worse than pre-band hangover. Lesson learned.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
