I have my surgery scheduled for 3/2... The anxiousness is keeping me up at night wondering if I am making the right decision.. or am I setting myself up to get sick for the rest of my life. I have been doing my research and reading posts from many different support groups all over the internet and there are some horrific stories out there are people that can't get food down.. or they throw up every time they eat meat ETC.. for me I could deal with it coming out the other end not to be graphic but the thought of vomiting for the rest of my life has me absolutely petrified and questioning should I take the chance.. Please share your experience from having gastric bypass... I understand the first couple weeks will be rough.. And I can imagine that others have struggled because they possibly didn't follow what their doctor recommends.. But to think you do all the right things and you still get sick has me worried... Whatever insight you can share and tips you can share to possibly avoid this with a greatly appreciated.. thanks in advance God bless!

My love I am about 4 weeks post op and as of yet I haven’t thrown up. Only time I felt nauseous was eating my multivitamin chewable. I eat small bites and take my time.

You learn what works for you super fast. I've thrown up ... 6 times? I think over the course of 15 months. Somehow beef meatballs is what gets me.

Twice it has happened because I accidentally took a big gulp of water right after eating without thinking about it, because I can drink pretty much as 'before' if on an empty stomach.

'The other end' as OP said - yeah, that has happened more and will happen with malabsorptive procedures. It hasn't been a problem, though.

I never did get nauseous. No food makes me feel bad. I wish it did.
