Are you PBing or actually vomiting?

If you're PBing, try taking very small bites, chewing it until mush, and pausing between bites.

If you're vomiting, call your doctor immediately, you shouldn't be vomiting.

WHAT IS PBing

PBing is Productive Burping. It's when you burp the food back up, it's not forceful or violent like vomiting and doesn't result in the stomach retching like vomiting.

WELL IM NOT BURPIN I DO EAT VERY SLOW BUT ONCE OR TWICE A DAY I GET SICK AND IM HAVING CHARLIE HORSES NON STOP AN I WAS TOLD IT IS LACK OF Water BUT MY TWO WEEK CHECKUP HE TOOK ME OFF MILK AN juice CAUSE WATER WEIGHT IF I CANT ANSWER YOU IM CLOSE BUT LEGALLY BLIND SO I NEED HELP BUT ANY INFO IS GREATLY APPRECIATED I HAVENT STARTED ANY SUPPORT GROUP YET MY DOCTOR HASNT RELEASED ME HES IN LOUISVILLE I LIVE NEXT TO NASHVILLE TN I GO BACK ON THE 18

I think you should go see your Dr.

It sounds like you are too tight. He must of put Fluid in your band at the time of surgery.

If you haven't had a fill... there is no reason you can not keep meat down and ESPECILLY fluids.

I have had several fills and I have absolutely no problem with any meat.< /span>

I seriously advise you to see the Dr.

Best of Luck and please keep us posted

Also, your just 2 weeks post op. Your stomach could still be swollen from the placement of the band and then with all the throwing up... uff. Maybe strictly liquids for a while.

This is just my opinion...but some Doctors don't give enough info, or have enough knowledge. (not saying yours doesn't)

I can't do very many meats and I am 5 1/2 months post op. No steak, or anything grilled. I can do stuff in the crockpot that is very tender, but other stuff even if I chew chew chew just causes discomforts and comes back up.

I'LL POST BIGGER SO IT'S EASIER TO SEE.

I WOULD TALK TO YOUR SURGEON BECAUSE YOU SHOULDN'T BE VOMITING, VOMITING CAN LEAD TO SLIPS.

I THINK THE SUPPORT GROUP WILL BE GOOD, AS WOULD SEEING A NUTRITIONIST. BOTH ARE VALUABLE TOOLS WHEN TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT WITH THE BAND.

GIVE YOUR SURGEON'S OFFICE A CALL AND LET THEM KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

BEST WISHES TO YOU.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
