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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
