Major Fail 3 weeks out-Advice please?

Hi all. Will keep this short. 3 weeks out and was progressing to veggies today. Had some coconut Water and was making kale chips for later in the week. Must have drank the water too quick. After cooking the chips, I ate about three to see how they were, bc I'd never made them before. Almost immediately I felt queasy.

Now I've been spitting up but can't barf (hiatal hernia repair maybe why?) and my chest hurts. Feel like I have liquid way up to my jaw. I definetly just thoughtlessly did something I used to do when I cooked per-sleeve. I feel absolutely idiotic now and I'm horrified about this resulting in a leak. I feel like I messed up really early on here--if this is the feeling people get when they eat too much, it's the first I've read of someone being dumb enough to get it this early into their experience.

Any words do advice? Def learned a lesson. Not looking for coddling but also please don't beat me up! :/

FYI, The kale chips are just kale in the oven with seasoning. Nothing crazy fattening.

I get that if I eat too fast or too much. It usually leads to vomitting for me but I also find that walking around helps it go away. It is the worst feeling but does go away.

Thanks Aussie! I feel so silly getting this so early on.

How long does it take to go away?

Oh I forgot to mention, wait at least 30 minutes after drinking to eat and 30 minutes to an 1 hour after eating to drink something. I learned that the hard way lol To me its like if you drink with food the drink will go to the bottom of sleeve and the food comes up to your throat and feels horrible.

Thanks Leann! I think this is exactly what happened. I drank coconut Water too fast then popped three little kale leaves. It does feel horrible! Gosh I can't wait for it to pass.
