I vomit here and there. I experience nausea a lot too. I ate egg salad too fast once and had to throw up bc it got stuck- that was gross! I am a coffee drinker and I probably shouldn't be, I'm relating a lot of my nausea to an hour after coffee.....I'm thinking it's causing gastritis. I just love it though. Damn.

If I'm not paying attention to what my body is saying and eat too much or too fast I WILL feel a huge pressure and a stuck feeling and the food ends up coming out.

Make sure to eat slowly and listen to your body..

No, in my opinion throwing up is not something you should expect....In fact if you find yourself throwing up that's your body telling you you're doing something wrong....either eating too fast, too much, or the wrong thing....

I had surgery on May 16, 2016 and vomited once early on because I ate a little too fast and ended up eating one bite too much when I moved to solid food.....early on it was hard for me to know I was full....I learned that by eating slower it gave my stomach and brain long enough to communicate with each other. Now, throwing up is certainly not apart of my post surgery life!

I also can tolerate any food....I haven't found anything that disagrees with me.....which in some respects is sad...haha I was sort of hoping I wouldn't like sweets and breads anymore...haha But I've met my goal weight and so far maintaining is going great.....Without a doubt it will be something I'll have to stay on top of for the rest of my life, but this surgery has given me a tool that will help me through!

Good luck to you!!

Oh great. I have the lapband and what everyone's describing sounds just like how getting stuck feels and sliming with my band I hate. Are any of you band to sleeve conversions? Is it the same?

6 weeks out. No puking, but I really pay attention to my sleeve when I'm eating and stop when it says "stop!"

I've thrown up a number of times. What I've learned is to eat very slowly and chew very thoroughly. I make a sensible plate that fits within the nut's guidelines and sit down with it. I first eat a tiny amount that is chewed very well. I then wait until my stomach relaxes and slowly eat the rest. This helps me get in the Protein and calories.

FWIW I've only thrown up once, and I had a stomach bug.

Day 12 and no vomit or nausea ....TIL today. Suddenly my Bariatric Advantage Vitamins made me gag. I have been taking them for a week or so, they were the best tasting thing on earth (since I hadn't had food) when I started taking them. Today, UGH!!!! I had that watery feeling out of my mouth. Don't even feel like having Protein shake now because still feeling quesy. I just ate 1/2 portion of the Health Wise Protein Jello. Who knew you can hate things later on. I know not that long, but I hope I don't feel like this having to take those tomorrow. I don't even want to think about having to take them. :wacko:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
