Got Sick For The First Time Saturday



Recommended Posts

Just an FYI---this may be TMI for some. So...it finally happened. I ate to fast, filled up my stomach and a little more and....well...up it came. I found it really strange. I haven't actually thrown up since surgery and that was violent dry heaving. This wasn't like the violent getting sick...but it just literally came back up. No convulsing, lol, no gagging, it just simply came back up and I spit it out.

Is that normal?? Is that what others have experienced? My sleeve is starting to take regular foods again and so I'm trying new stuff....but it still doesn't like some things. I got a little sick from Soup with to much grease in it too (I know...grease in soup?? Go figure)

When I first was sleeved i did have dry heaves sometimes, not often, but i did have them. I actually eventually had to go to the hospital too, cuz i was now dehydrated. This happens to others sometimes too, so its not un normal to have this happen.

BUT....Up until awhile aago, i probably wouldn't have posted here, but...

a couple of weeks ago, i was kindof beginning real food, - i made a delicious veal stew. For whatever reason, i just wasn't thinking, the veal was so yummy i just starting eating away, too fast of course - when i was done - i was so upset, cuz i knew i had eaten too fast like i did in the good ol' days.

Maybe even a dot more than i should have. Sure enough shortly after the food came up, but maybe TMI - it really came back up in full pieces of veal, gross. Trust me, that never happened to me again.

Called my NUT in the morning worried about my sleeve, she said i should be fine, i told her i learned my lesson the hard way, and i could "see" her smiling on the other side of the phone, saying "you did learn your the hard way, but you learned to be more careful." So thats my story for good or bad.

Best

GOSH, I have never had this experience. My stomach just feels really full for about 10 minutes and then goes away. I do eat way tooooooo fast, but I seem to know when to stop (knock on wood). I am working on slowing down, but when I see my hubby eating really fast, I start having control issues and tell him to slow down. It so sucks. Anywhoo, thanks for sharing and it wasn't TMI. It is really hard to stay focused when having other people around who can eat a lot.

Please accept my apology for being in a slump today. I will just have to snap myself out of this rut! LOL ;)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
