Throwing up white foam?!?



Recommended Posts

I am15 days out and supposed to start puree food, cottage cheese, etc etc.

I cant seem to keep anything down within an hour any real food comes back up again. I can drink the shakes and Water, popcicles, etc etc. But any real food, doesn't wanna stay down. Is my stomach not ready for real food yet or should I go have it checked out??

I was sleeved in Mexico so would have to go see my doctor or got to urgent care.

I do eat slow and don't mix the liquids with the food, just worried something is wrong.

Anyone have any suggestions??

Your stomach may not be ready for "real" food yet. Give it a few days. My RD told me to try one new food at a time, and only a little bit, to see how it goes. it was good advice.

I just had my procedure on 2/19/18, on 3/2/18 i decided to introduce my new stomach some instant mashed potatoes, i didn't eat but 4 tips of a spoon, later i got the hiccups, then felt like a needed to burp, i couldn't burp without making that beer looking foam come up, maybe i need to chill a little longer before i re-introduce my stomach with mushy foods. I'm just tired of ramen noodle broth every day.

Any suggestions

Raman noodle broth is High in Sodium. Might make you retain Fluid and slow down your loss of weight. Yogurt, sugar free puddings and Jello, thin cream of rice or cream of wheat, cottage cheese. You might even be able to eat soft scrambled egg if you're close to the pureed, mooshy stage.How about a tiny bit of ripe banana? Just a few ideas off the top of my head.

Hey guys... I'm 3 weeks out on mushy foods and today I went for a long walk and since I got back everything I eat or drink comes back up... It's like a thick white foam and saliva.. What did I do to myself?

I'm on my third week as well and have the same symptoms. One of the things I've noticed that helps me is eating very slow and even before I think I'm full I wait 15 minutes. It only takes three spoonfuls of whatever I'm eating to feel very uncomfortable and it feels like it's coming back up. This helped me and I hope it helps you to

Thanks for the heads up on the High Sodium, i just couldn't take another sip of the bland chicken broth, i saw some chicken Soup with low sodium, maybe that will help,

Hi guys.. I am new to this forum.. I have browsed a few times but never commented.

I am 7 weeks post Gastric Bypass. I am having such a difficult time getting down the minimum amount of daily Protein.

And on soft foods but mostly every time I try to eat I get that awful foam!

Thank you for your post Katie Bug (so cute).

      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? 🤷‍♀️
