I may have been too ambitious with breakfast this morning; 3 bites of an english muffin sandwich consisting of piled scrambled egg and bacon, about 2 tbsp and 1 piece respectively. I ate 3 bites, probably too quickly, and suffered in mega pain for like an hour afterward, including a sliming where I barely made it to the bathroom at work. Ever since all day I can't put one thing in my mouth without feeling like I just ate the Thanksgiving turkey. So at the end of the day, I'm not going to come near making my protein quota for the day, and just generally feel crummy. Suggestions? Comments?

Protein drink??

ha, i had that happen last night too. . .felt like i was starving (ya right!) so ate 3 tablespoons of spaghetti and meat sauce way too fast and get this one! without chewing properly (after 1 year you would think bad habits have changed ! hahahaha) and wow it was like here comes the discomfort, sliming, spitting episodes, and walking around til that feeling went away. . . then your tummy swells and you are not hungry anymore and don't want nothing to eat again. . . what i do is just leave it be and carry on the next day and do better. . . good luck!

Been there done that too, almost exactly what you mentioned. Got excited with some food and ate the whole 3 ozs pretty fast, the pain hit (luckily for me for only about 15 minutes tops) and after that I could hardly eat a thing.

People here assured me that it DOES get better, and after a few weeks after my "episode" I can say that YES it does. For about the first time yesterday I ejoyed a bit of leftover spaghetti that we had and actually mooched another 2 bites more from my wifes plate.

I think the body reacts to the pain and puts us off mentally from food for a while.

Yeah I really couldn't eat or drink anything the rest of the day, I wonder if I had internally bruised myself? At the end of the day I could handle a little lick of ice milk but even then ... even hot tea wasn't overly welcome. The bummer/shock today though is that I stepped on the scale and I was up a pound?!! wtf.
