Major Fail 3 weeks out-Advice please?



Recommended Posts

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.

I think you will be fine :-) As for the full feeling it will go away eventualy. I still get the feeling and I am almost 2 months out. Just make sure when you start on puree that you eat it slow and chew chew chew.

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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
