Vomiting, post op 9weeks, vsg

Hi there, had my vsg done 9 weeks ago, im still experiancing vomiting, usually saliva and some white foamy stuff comes out. Has anybody had the same experiance?

My Fluid intake is ok, but food intake is low. I eat no more than 10 tsp in a day, usually lunch and dinner, have juice in the morning.

Hi all,

Had my check-up yesterday, and it seems although the eating issue is an issue, if you get all your Vitamins in the main thing to concentrate on is hydration.... I'm back in a month to check progress again, but no alarm bells are ringing at the moment.... Phew!!!

I had same problem, I finally had my gallbladder out and I am just getting to feeling right. I was sleeved in July and GB out in December. I still get sick if I eat too fast.

Am doing ok, will be weighing myself on friday, as I do it weekly, still cant get enough proteins, really difficult

I am just starting week 6, and I was told by my dietician to eat with a teaspoon to make sure your not putting too much in your mouth so for someone to say they are only eating 6 teaspoons of food makes perfect sense to me. I am the same, if I eat its only 4-6 teaspoons but I try and ensure I have three meals a day so it adds up to extra. I do still get disappointed that I can't finish a meal even though its a tiny portion, if I'm enjoying the food but my tummy says no way I just stop. I've learnt not to push it as if I continue I get very sick. I do carry a water bottle with me everywhere or I forget to drink, this got me pass my stall and is a blessed relief when I'm feeling very dry, I constantly take sips x

I hope I have anyway, if I start to stall again I may just cry lol it was horrid to stall but I read lots of feedback on here and the main advice was drink...drink..drink. So I bought my water bottle and carry it everywhere, sipping as I go :-)

I am 1 1/2 years out and it has only been a few months that the regular sickness is going away. But I still get sick once a week or every two weeks. I needed to identify what was making me sick, at first it was eggs and cheeses. I can eat them now in little doses. Breads seem to plug me up and I get sick fast, so I have learned to not eat the bread or have one small nibble. I also will eat flat tortillas, not pita bread. Eating too fast has been my problem also, I can't eat at the table I have to eat in front of TV to distract me from my small plate. Also make sure to not drink with meals, that seems to get me sick pretty quick.

I am 19 days post veg and I vomit at least once a day.
