Weird question/situation



Recommended Posts

Since I've transitioned to eating normal food, I've had a couple of instances where I will burp little pieces of food up hours, like 6-8 hours, after I've eaten.

For examples:

I can eat the inside of a small chicken eggroll in the afternoon around 1pm, then eat dinner around 7, and somewhere around 9pm, I'll burp up a bit of the cabbage from the eggroll. It's weird, and to be honest pretty gross.

I've had some Wendy's chili which has celery and onions, and those came back up hours later as well.

I'll eat some tuna with pickle bits, chopped up tiny, and then 3-4 hours later a piece of the pickle will come completely undigested.

It's happened with various Beans. I quit eating corn after one attempt because that was disgusting.

Now, what's even more strange. I can eat Mexican food especially chicken fajitas with the sauteed onions, and have zero ill effects. I can eat guacamole without any of the chunks of tomatoes and onions (I hate tomatoes and raw onions).

I don't know if it's not chewing well enough, or slow motility in my sleeve. I drink about 30 - 45 minutes after eating, and I drink right up to the time my first bite hits my mouth. I do chew, chew, chew, but this happens sometimes with various foods.

Any ideas, suggestions or advice?

I can't figure that one out, Tiff. Cabbage from lunch coming up after supper....did you have some cabbage for supper too? Seems like lunch should be gone after 2 hours. ???

It is super weird. It's like some foods hide out in my tummy, and then come up later.

For dinner after the eggroll, I actually had some mac-n-cheese. None of it came up.

I have had that too, Tiffy. I feel fine; it's not like when I get the slimes. And just little chunks, nothing major. Beans are no good for me, nor celery. Onions are iffy. Thicker breads? No way, period. I am sure it is just of stomachs now have little hidden pockets and some of the more course materials get caught, then work their way back up. I have an appointment on Tuesday and was going to ask about the burping up of stuff anyway. Will pass on what I find out.

Thanks Bob for asking. My surgeon just deployed to the sandbox for 6 months, and I don't have a follow-up until December.

It's the weirdest thing I've ever had happen. I don't get a sensation that anything is going to come up nor does it feel like when I don't chew well enough followed by a bit of sliminess. It's just so weird to explain. It's like I'll take a drink of Water, then BAM a tiny burp with a hitchhiker pickle piece.

I'll keep up with this thread to see what your doc says could be the cause.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
