Eat too fast, days of pain?



Recommended Posts

I am 72 days post surgery, and not on any restrictive diet anymore. I was cleared about 10 days ago. On Friday, I am not sure if I ate too fast, or ate something wrong, but I have been in severe pain - all day yeserday, and even into today. I know I am not blocked up, as I pooped 3x yesterday. i heard all kinds of rumbling and moving and gurgling in my belly yesterday. Today is less noise. Today I have pain like soreness you get after puking a ton from food poisoning - like your core and all stomach muscles are just sore.

Has anyone else had this? Is it from eating too quick? I did eat some Taiwanese style tofu like pudding pretty quick, and it had some sugar in it. I definitely noticed a bad feeling after that - but was not 100% in the morning either. That night I also ate a small bowl of chicken Tortilla Soup from Chick-fila, as well as the insides out of one of their wraps with baked/grilled chicken. I ate more than I possibly thought I would (took 30 mins to eat that).

I am wondering if the tofu and Beans combo just added a ton of gas?

Yesterday was rough. I only got in 64 ounces of liquid and had 2 premiere Protein Shakes - no food at all.

I have really done good since the restrictions were removed, but not sure what caused this issue, and I want to make sure I avoid doing it again. I literally felt pain like the week after surgery.

Best to talk to your surgeon's office just to be on the safe side.

If the pain has improved and doesn't come back, you're probably fine...but if it gets worse or reoccurs you should take prompt action in having it evaluated.

Agreed. It is definitely diminished from yesterday. I just didn't know if it was a symptom of eating too fast, or eating the wrong food maybe? I heard that RnY and other WLS solutions have the dumping syndrome...which I know this isn't. I just didn't know if there was something similar for sleeve/DS people.

      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!!
