Since I can't tell when I get full I think I ate too much and vomited. Sorry to be graphic but it just came right up and out. Good thing I was smart enough to go to the bathroom when I got the feeling.

I havent had that happen yet. The gross thing that happens to me is I have saliva or mucus come up after eating. Almost like my stomach says "here, hold this, I need to make some space". I eat privately because of this.

What you are doing is called maybe not professionally but around the WL peeps is "FOAMIES" I have had my share of vomiting. I had Strictures and couldn't even keep Water down. Strictures are basically scar tissue. All is GREAT NOW!!

This is why you need to measure/weigh your food and eat very, very slowly. Are you still on purees or are you on soft or full diet? It takes a few times to realize what satiated feels like, going slow will give you a bit more leeway so you don't vomit.

Today is 1 month Post Op. I can start solid food today. I was eating Hummus last night and yes I wasn't paying attention. You can believe that it will not happen again.

That isn't being graphic. Being graphic is describing the taste coming up, the feeling as it shot from your body, the smell of the vomit, comparison of the color to that of 70's shag carpet, explaining the size of the chunks, giving us the distance of the projection and finally how hard it was to clean it up after it hit your cat but your dog helped with some of the clean up by eating most of it.

No sir, your standards are too low. You're going to have to try harder next time.

It's gross, huh? For me, vomiting post op is MUCH different than before. And yes even when you're an old WLS hag like me, you can eat too much or your sleeve won't like something or you'll have too much acid building up in your stomach and..........yup.

YES. This was my first oopsie as well. Mindless eating, not paying attention.

      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.
