First Time I Threw Up



Recommended Posts

So, today I had I had a small amount of food, baked chicken breast, mashed potatoes, green Beans, and some of the chicken got stuck and then it came back up!!! That was the worst feeling ever!!!!! I chewed my food like 15 times and still came back up. I guess I have to get used to my new baby...LOL!!! Tomorrow, I'm starting to work out on my Wii for about 10-15 minutes...So, glad that I am now able to eat solids...I still do miss some food, it didn't help that my mom made fried apple pies and fried chicken...I stayed strong, but I miss some of the things that aren't good for me. Does anyone else feel like this???????

chicken (well meat in general) doesnt work for me. I would go with a much more juicier meat maybe the thigh next time.

Chew 20-30 times.. see if the chewing more helps. and man what you had to eat sounds so yummy to me! ( still are darn liquids lol ) and no you are not alone... we all think of our old comfort foods I am sure.. I know I do from time to time.. just don't dwell it on, and quickly move on! :)

chicken is difficult I dunk mine in something like diet ranch or it goes for an elevator ride back up. I have just given up on steak never stays down even blended so I have a bite of my husbands and get the taste and thats better then 5 trips to the bathroom to get rid of it. Everyone grieves food in the begining ...

But when you are over it you look at it and it really makes you sick yuck greasy,to sweet , taste chemically (diet pop and stuff) and if you want a little you will be surprised how a mini candy bar is okay and you don't need a whole bar or two to fill you.

I use to take 3 Cookies at a time because the first 2 went down to fast and the 3rd one was the one I tasted now it's just a cookie and it better be this kind with nuts and warm and then I might eat it or not . The day will come when you look at others overflowing plates and realize that use to be you and you just can not imagine eating all that food. It is a process and you will get there

I know without a doubt chicken breast will not work for me unless stewed.

I always preferred the breast, but as I have gotten older, it had been harder & harder to get down.

From now on it will be cooked in crockpot, stewed or dark meat only.

Best of luck!

well, since you are 1 week and some out from surgery, i am betting you are still very swollen inside still. in my opinion, way tooo soon to try chicken and green Beans (unless your doctor ok'd you to progress to reg foods already).

anyhow, i would go slow on eating. chew alot but you may have just rushed ((eating too soon)).

all the best and congrats on your surgery :)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
