How often did/ do you vomit post-surgery?



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 4 months post-op, and so far no vomiting, but have been queasy several times and thought about it.

2 weeks out and only twice so far. Those were at the hospital and like a previous poster mentioned more likely caused by having been put under and it really was more like dry heaving and foam.




I’d like to amend my statement from above; looks like I didn’t agree with a new multi I was trying out and out it went! Took me 3 mornings to realize that it was the multi causing the problem.

Thanks for the input! How’s everything else going post op? Happy you did it?

I'm almost 4 years post op, and haven't vomited once! Had some nausea quite a few times, but no actual vomiting. I have also never had a bad experience with any foods, either. My sleeve can handle anything. Double edged sword, I suppose ;)

I'm also 5 1/2 months out and I have not thrown up since the hospital. I have felt like it a couple of times when I eat too much or I forget and drink too soon after eating. It's been pretty easy...I am careful about how much I eat and I stay on the program most meals.I remember how excited I was to eat that first scrambled egg...I still love eggs and eat them most mornings!

My sleeve can't handle **** lol. No but seriously, a year out and i still have to be SO careful. I'm grateful but its annoying when trying to eat out. Its way better if i eat at home, usually alone so I'm not distracted and eat too fast. I can eat most things but i still have to just upchuck after eating certain things. But it's not like a regular vomiting situation. I'll feel really full, then it'll start rolling up and down my throat and then ill start to get heartburn and then ill have to just make that decision to let it go. Happens if not a couple times a day then several times a week. Makes me not want to eat because i honestly feel more comfortable without food in my stomach. But so long as I'm careful with my choices and time, most things stay down.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! This makes me feel so much better about the surgery.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
