I am 5 weeks out and the last few days I have been throwing up after 4-5 bites of any type of chewed foods. I went back to Soups but cant really eat much. I had some crunchy Peanut Butter last week and I am wondering if I have some blockage. I can't even really drink much of my Protein shake. I have only really been able to drink Water.

I called my doctor and he is ordering an upper GI X-Ray. Has anyone experienced this? Is there any home remedies?

Thanks in Advance,

Mo

I had my X-ray yesterday and it was all clear. I was able to see that I do have reflux during the X-ray. After seeing that it was all clear I went back to eating again with confidence but much slower now. It sucks eating slow but the throwing up is a lot worse. I am down 41 pounds over five weeks so it's really hard to complain. I miss eating regular food but it feels good to be down!

What were you guys eating after your 5th week? I want to try some new things and look forward to hearing any and all suggestions. Can we eat Peanut Butter?

** Glad to hear you know what in the world is going on. After reading your blog, I was like OMG, I am experiencing the same thing. I see my dr on Tuesday and may have to have an xray too. This is crazy. When was your surgery? Mine was on 5/17th. I so feel your story and hope that we both can soon be normal. It just does not work the same for everyone. Good luck.... =)

One more thing, I have not taken the Lansoprazole prevacid prescribed because I did not think I needed it... Tonight I just did 4 the 1st time after reading your story indentical to mine. Thanks!

How are you feeling now?

I am about 8 weeks out ... I can eat everything really, but like everyone else just not a lot. I stick to the Proteins first of course. I also feel I can consume more than others from what I have read but still a fraction of what I once did. I was on a stall from week 2 to 6 and that really was hard to deal with but tried not to stress it too much lol. I chalk it up to me losing a lot of weight pre surgery. Hope all goes well.
