Gross Topic - Weird PB!



Recommended Posts

Just wondering if this is something of concern...

Yesterday afternoon I ate bites if food #1. Had Water here and there afterwards, everything went down well.

About 2 hours later we had supper (food #2). I could feel the food going through my stoma. Then the flow of food was stopped!

After several different attempts of trying to get my food to "pass" I ended up having to pb.

Here's the strange thing... I pb'd particles of food #1.

Some of food #2 came back up, but not all.

Anyone else experience this?

No, but it sounds like you just didn't digest #1. What was it that you ate. Is it the first time eating this?

Is it the first time eating this?

No! Its was shredded roast beef, I eat this very often.

And b/c I was able to drink Water for 2 hours afterwards, Im assuming I wasnt "stopped up". Then, I was able to eat part of my supper (nachos), before the "attack" happened...

so, thats why Im not sure whats going on. Its almost like particles of that roast beef stayed in a portion of my pouch, then tried to make an escape with the nachos, but didnt!

Sooooooo, where was the roast beef hiding for 2 hours??? Thats what has me wondering...

Okay....I'm sorry that I know this information....but after being a bulimic for almost ten years, I have of course seen all kinds of things. It has been my experience that things like meat take a long time to fully digest. Refined carbs like bread and stuff break down faster. I'm not surprised that some of the beef came up even several hours later. It just takes a long time for your tummy to break it all down. I think that's probably why the docs want us eating hard Protein like that, you stay fuller longer.

I figured item #1 was beef, I've heard stuff like steak takes days to break down. Makes sense that it would keep you full longer too. chips disappear entirely too quickly.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
