Bile?

Was it the color of egg yolk? That's probably stomach bile, which you tend to bring up on an empty stomach.

Yes, if there isn't any food to vomit then bile will be what comes up. Usually its food first, then liquid (bile) and then dry heaves. Youre on liquids so chances are its bile which along with digestive enzymes is the color yellow

I agree with everyone else "Bile". It happened to me several times, I was so used to gulping ice cold water! Took awhile but I can now gulp again, just not as big as before! :)

Bile for sure. And that sucks cause I know it burns like hell when it comes up. Did they give you something for nausea or acid reflux?

I'm so glad you asked this question, because exactly the same thing just happened to me. I was extremely worried because it was a really dark yellow!

      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.
