A few bites too many...

So I am 6 weeks post op. Tonight is the first time I feel like I want to puke. (Since the first 2 days after surgery that is) I think I ate a few more bites than I should have. It has been more than 2 hours since I ate and I still feel crappy. I almost want to make myself vomit so I feel better. How long is this feeling going to last? I am also worried that I won't be able to get in all my fluids tonight. Still have 32 ounces to drink.

  • I'm 9 mths out and I still overeat occasionally. Wish it were that easy to vomit as it used to be when I was lapbanded. It's a drawn out, painful process that doesn't give much results so I don't real

I did the same thing like 3 weeks after surgery, I walked around for like a half an hour, and everything worked itself out. I hope you feel better.

I've done it to, 2 or 3 times. Definitely not a good feeling. It will pass eventually.

I'm 9 mths out and I still overeat occasionally. Wish it were that easy to vomit as it used to be when I was lapbanded. It's a drawn out, painful process that doesn't give much results so I don't really advise it.

My problem is that I eat way too fast, making it take longer for my tummy to register itself as full, making me eat too much. Don't get me wrong. By "too much" I mean 12 bites instead of 10, or 3 oz instead of 2. Still not much but enuf to cause pain.

Ur only 6 weeks out. Still a baby. still learning what ur sleeve tolerates and what it doesn't. How much it can take - and how much it can't. It may take a while. We all wouldn't be here if we didn't have food issues in the first place. Army basic training taught me to eat way too fast. If u didn't eat in 5 mins, u didn't eat. Never relearned eating slowly till being sleeved (after 3 1/2 yrs of eating fast with my band and frequent vomiting).

Ull be fine. I wouldn't push even the liquids tonite, as long as ur feeling nauseous. It may just make it inevitable to actually throw up. And while I don't think u can damage a 6 week old sleeve by vomiting (not like the lapband), it's not advisable to vomit.

Good luck to u.
