Dinning out

Tonight was my first night eating out after having surgery about 1 ½ months out and I ate three scallops and literally thought I was going to vomit. Omg the discomfort I felt was something I never want to feel again. I know I probably should have chewed more and took my time but now I'm a nervous wreck I did damage to the sleeve. I never had this feeling before.

  • Highly unlikely you could have done any damage. You likely just ate too much too fast. If you continue to have pain, call your surgeon, but otherwise, give it time and it should move down.

  • Just once now. There is actually quite a bit of discussion on here recently about whether a sleeve can actually stretch or not. Common theory was it couldn't but there is at least one poster on here

It took about 10mins but just doing this once can't stretch it right? I have the hardest time with the whole chewing thing.

Just once now. There is actually quite a bit of discussion on here recently about whether a sleeve can actually stretch or not. Common theory was it couldn't but there is at least one poster on here recently who has been told her sleeve was stretched verified by an x-ray. But I digress.... If it went down in 10 minutes, you are completely fine. If you had food "stuck", the discomfort would last much longer. Just a learning opportunity for you. :D
