This morning was my first (and hopefully last) vomiting experience. Well, the omelette was delicious- which was part of the problem. I'm feeling a little too normal and trying to eat a little too noramal-- lesson learned: EAT SLOWLY AND CHEW COMPLETLY!

I just kept apologizing to my sleeve. LOL. The experience wasn't horrendous, but I did cry about throwing up Protein.< /p>

I had my first one yesterday. Had some wonderful turkey. It was BBQ and soooooo gooooood! And well between eating too fast and one bite too many I had my first vomit. I was surprised at how non violent it was compared to when I would vomit before my sleeve. But I was saddened at the loss of protein.., I'm convinced that had I slowed, I could have had that much turkey though, it was only 3.5 oz, and I've had more than that of chicken in the last couple of days... But the chicken wasn't as good and I didn't scarf it up as quick.

Good luck to you and may this be our last time!

Glad that you both recognize it's either that you ate too fast or too much. I am 18 months out, have never thrown up and fortunately have a stop warning signal, my NOSE runs first starting with the sniffles, if I take one more bite, it runs like a faucet. You'll be like your old self soon, meaning your struggles will become habits and you won't see it as a struggle. We all have days that we can eat more than others, some days I'm starving. So a Protein Drink in between helps. The more carbs I try to sneak in, the hungrier I become. If at all, avoid them. We are all human and have cravings, I satisfy mine. Not in volume, it often doesn't take more than a bite or two. I now cook for others and take a bite. I love my sleeve. Love my time working out and the solitude and satisfaction that comes with it. The best to both of you.

I think we learned our lesson! And I agree with you-- I thought the vomiting experience would've been so much worse, but I guess when you only eat a couple ounces, it's not so bad. I've decided to lay low today and have a couple Protein shakes-- and try some BBQ shrimp this evening -- SLOWLY! Lol

Yes, it was def my fault. I should've paid more attention. 18 months and no vomit- awesome! I was actually just bragging to my husband last night that I never threw up. He said I jinxed myself. Haha.

I had my first experience after 4 months yesterday. Ate chicken breast too fast. It was way different than a sick feeling. It was horrible pain, weird cold saliva, and then it came up... But just enough until my sleeve was comfy. I'm thinking this is what some people call "sliming".

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
