Food intolerance?



Recommended Posts

So what are the symptoms of not tolerating what you just ate/drank? My program gave me plenty of information on dumping but not really what to expect if something isn’t tolerable vs normal reactions?

So far when I've eaten something that I can't tolerate (steak, bread/tortilla), I throw up "the foamies." It's not food that I throw up, it's like a foamy mucus and my stomach rolls and feels like everything's rolling up toward my mouth.

Your tummy is just trying to EVICT a tenant! You didn't need that meat filled burrito anyway!🍝

I think it will prob be diff for everyone. I jst started purees this week and trying to eat smashed scrambled eggs with mashed avacado and totally threw up for the first time. It was weird bec earlier that day, I ate a cup of turkey chilli from Panera bread and all of it it stayed down just fine. I also pureed some canned salmon with chicken broth, and it also stayed down, but later in the evening when i tried it again with out the broth,but chewed up like puree, I vomited which was SOOOO PAINFUL!

Like they say this is a new tool. We have to break in and learn how to use it. What does not work today maybe work months later. It's always changing till it is worked in. Now with me going on 4 1/2 months my stomach will start hurting when I have put to much in or eat to fast. If I continue to eat the foamy's will start. You will start spitting up what looks like foam from the ocean. Standing up and walking will help in time but throwing it up will relieve the pressure in your stomach and throat.

Starts to feel like a “back up” in my stomach. Like things aren’t wanting to stay put. My mouth fills will saliva and generally the only way to feel better is to throw up, but you can’t force yourself to throw up; doesn’t work. Either your body gets its out, or not. If not, the pain builds and you feel bloated and uncomfortable . At least this is how it feels for me.

      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!!
