I had my first barf episode today after lunch. I had a gortons grilled filet which is about 2 ozs and i had about 3 teaspons of applesauce. My chest started hurting and my mouth started watering :blink:

i ran to the bathroom...and within minuted i barfed...but it was only the applesauce. Never been so happy to throw up....at least now i know my sleeve works and I haven't been eating too much :lol:

That doesn't seem like much, did you eat too fast maybe?

And isn't it weird that only part of what you ate came up? Thankfully, I have not had that happen, but have heard others say that when they do that, it is not like a full on vomit and only get rid of some of the stuff they eat! WEIRD!!

Sorry you got sick, but glad you are happy to know your sleeve works!! LOL

it really wasn't a lot...i am thinking either I ate too fast, or didnt chew enough, or it was just the combo.

I haven't barfed yet, but I'm only 5 weeks out. I can't eat 2 oz of Protein yet, but it sounds like you might have eaten to fast.

All I have to do is make the statement "I can't eat 2 oz of Protein yet" to know my sleeve works. It's hard sometimes, but I love it.

I have the exact same reaction that you do in that I barf up only the last few bites...I've never felt like I tossed everything in my sleeve...just maybe the last few bites that made it overfull? I also have the sensation of my mouth watering or just having massive over-secretions of saliva. It is pretty gross. I haven't thrown up in awhile as I am getting better (finally!) at figuring out what the subtle signals are that I am full.

Good to know that the restriction is REAL though huh?? :o

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
