How long between “meals”

[2Bsmaller18 435]

I’m 3 1/2 weeks post bypass. I ate about 3 oz of fish and 3 hours later tried 1/4 c rectors Beans. I got ill and had the foamier. Never want to do that again. It was so painful!! I think it’s because I ate the beans too quickly (I have had them a few times last week without issues.

Is it possible I still had the fish in my stomach from 3 hours before. How long does it take fir food to leave the new stomach? I have heard Water and yogurt move quickly within minutes.

Just curious, but are those your surgeon's instructions? I know all surgeons are different, but I will still be on pureed food at 3 1/2 weeks, and can't eat solid regular food for 7 weeks. Maybe your new pouch is telling you it is too soon for such heavy food. Now, if it is on your plan, maybe you ate too quickly or too much volume. Good luck, and I hope it doesnt happen again!

Anytime you get the foamies it means you're eating something your stomach isn't ready for. I eat about every 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
