I can eat something one day and the next I can't tolerate it?



Recommended Posts

Hi all!
I'm 45 days post op and I find my pouch confusing...I discovered ricotta bake when I first started puree foods. I ate it for dinner for days, and then one night two bites in I was in discomfort and it bounced right back out. Ricotta in general, tried it again on it's own. I was fine. Tried it another day and it bounced. Scrambled eggs, good one day, I'm throwing up the next. Same thing with tuna salad on Protein chips.
So I'm wondering, for those who have experienced this, does it become more predictable? Is my body just weird :o)

I am 25 days post op and i have the same problem except this is a constant thing for me. Like the moment i eat i feel like the food isnt staying in my stomach, it bounces back up and i want to throw it up. Its so weird.

I’m 6 months out and this happens to me too. A scrambled egg goes down one day and the next it hurts and comes back up. Same with several things.

I'm not going to lie, it is a little disheartening to hear that six months out you're still having issues with this, as I was/am hopeful that it's something that will resolve. It would be easier if I knew I could just never eat some of these Protein sources, instead of the fine one day followed by discomfort/pain and puking the next. The nurse practitioner for my program who had the surgery decades ago, just said some things will agree with you and some won't and it's up to me if I want to keep trying. tuna is just such a good source of protein though...I'm just hopeful my stomach figures this out.

I'm about 9 months out and this still happens to me. I'm really not sure what it is, but it's weird. I'm starting to sort of intuitively know when it will happen when I see or even think about a food. Sometimes I will see pizza (can be any food though) and feel fine and then have a piece and I'm fine. Other times I get a very faint feeling of queasiness when I see it and every time I've ignored that feeling I've had issues with either vomiting or heavy nausea. It sounds crazy, but I'm really starting to notice a pattern!

See now that I can deal with, any indication would be better than none. So I guess I will just have to pay extra close attention to my body and how I a feeling before I eat something that has given me an issue in the past. It's just hard right now because i find that I am approaching foods that are good for me (high in Protein, low in fat and sugar etc) with trepidation., and I really don't want to feel that way about good food that's supposed to nourish my body. Like I said, it's just been confusing.

I have eaten oatmeal my whole life and after the RNY it was fine while on the soft pureed etc then one morning I had it and it made me sick. I waited a few days tried again same thing. Three times it made me sick so the dietitian said put it aside for a while. Same thing with smoked salmon I love it. Had it with cottage cheese and Avo first bite made my start heaving. With the oatmeal it's fine again now. I'm thinking there were other things going on. I was badly constipated and got very sick. Turned out I had kidney stones. I had them out this week and so far all food has been fine. I had my first sandwich with soft bread in hospital and it was good.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
