Do I count the calorie's & such if I can't keep it down?



Recommended Posts

OK, silly maybe stupid question: I was sleeved in February still learning the thing my new tummy likes, doesn't like and just simply wont tolerate. My question is, If I eat it and throw it up within 10~15 minutes do I still count it? I have been eating and throwing up a lot lately and am not sure what to do here. Please offer your opinion's.

Thank you in advance :}

I was told not to count calories by my NUT she said use this first year to tune into our body and listen to our stomachs. Eat when hungry but make sure it is physical hunger and not head hunger. Just healthy eating for life.

I haven't thrown up yet (knock on wood) so don't know the right answer on that one. Seems if it all comes up within 10 mins you're not retaining 100% of the calories. I do have a guideline for water/fluid intake 64 oz, Protein 60-90g and cals 900-1000. I do aim for 90g of protein and maximum 900 cals but often go over in protein and under in cals. All drs are different with their plans of course.

I'd be more concerned about why I was throwing up. Is it an eating disorder, overeating, stomach virus or something else? Maybe I got off on the wrong track here, but thought I'd mention this.
