Need help im falling into an old habit



Recommended Posts

I recently just started making myself vomit it was something I use to do before surgery n I stopped over a year now. I can't understand y I'm doing this again I have an idea that maybe it's cause my stomach feels so full all the time. Has anyone experience this or do I need to speak to my surgeon?? PLEASE SEND ME YOUR ANSWERS

Don't over stuff your self to the point that you are so full you want to vomit. vomiting is damaging to your teeth and esophagus. It can cause esophageal cancer if vomiting is done for a long period of time. you may want to speak to a therapist/psychologist to help with this eating disorder. My father did this and probably still does because he didn't want to gain weight but wanted to eat bad food.Prior to surgery I became desperate and I almost started to do it but didnt like the feeling. Keep making healthy food choices and Good luck.

You say you are feeling full all the time... Are you eating over the recommend amounts? Or is it happening no matter how little you eat?

I think I'm eating to fast but I've noticed I haven't been having any BM in the last 4 days could that be it?

I would highly recommend making an appointment with a psychologist as soon as possible.

Are you making yourself throw up from eating or another way? If so, please talk to someone about it, you could really hurt yourself please..

Eating to fast will definitely put you in pain from being overly full! This is something I've had problems with since surgery also.. It's very important to measure the proper amount and for us and sit down at the table and "think" about the pace and the "process" of our eating.

Forcing yourself to throw up afterwards is an altogether different issue I think stemming from past behaviors. It's something that you should definitely talk to someone about to try and work through the thought process behind it.

Oh as for the bm yes that could be contributing to the uncomfortable feeling.. I have to take stool softeners sometimes for that issue.

Thank u for the advice I'm waiting for my nurse to return my call so I'm going to drink Water cause I'm scared to eat anything until I have BM I really think I'm constipated its causing me to fill do full that I'm vomiting my food up . Something needs to come out so something can go in.????

If I eat to fast or if something does go down right I have to vomit and I don't care for that so I suggest eating slower and you said you haven't had a bm in a few days that can cause other problems. I take stool softners daily because I was having issue so try that

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
