Grandma made some fried chicken. I thought I could get away with eating a bit of the meat sans the skin. I didn't think I'd dump since I hadn't dumped off sugar. Maybe i didn't chew it well enough or something. All I know is that I feel this pressure in my pouch area like something is trying to go down. It's a weird pain. And I keep throwing up white foam.

I am officially done testing my pouch. This sucks.

I don't care what caused my dumping. Whether chewing, speed or fat content. I will not mess with this again. Lol

And a question, is this white foam vomit normal?

I did the same thing tonight with some pork chops I put in the crock pot. I thought maybe it was too dry...Idk. All I do know it did not settle at all. Could have been not chewed well. Anyway...after praying to the porcelain god...I feel much better. I think the white foam is because we don't have stomach acid anymore...its just the saliva we swallow. I have it too. Live and learn I guess :)

I only got sick once so far and it's bc I didn't chew well enough. I will probably never eat tuna again! I don't think I have dumped yet. Scared of that too!

Way too early for chicken. :(. Anykind. I've heard it is one of the hardest meats to digest. You had the foamies!!!! Yes, this is gross and common. It happens a lot in the beginning stages when you eat something your stomach does not like or eat it too fast.

Definitely not worth testing the grounds. Your nutritionist from your bariatric group should have supplied a food listing for you. I know they are all different but, most don't even allow solids until after your visit with them. For the first two weeks the most solid piece of food I could have was cottage cheese and even with that I was told to chew, chew, chew.

Hope you're feeling better! Take it as a lesson learned for sure and stick to what your doc is giving you for a food list. Believe me I know things are tempting but, I keep repeating to myself.....it's not worth it, it's what got me here in the first place so keep with the list :)

I had a VBG in 98 .....I'm 2 weeks out of my revision to RNY ....... Yeah, that is a combo of not chewing and the food choices. It is 100% too soon for solids like that. You r still swollen inside. I did that "foaming and / vomiting" for 10 years! It was so bad I would opt not to eat for a week at a time. So, let your tummy heal. Be mindful of bites and I believe always take a test bite and wait, see how you feel, you'll usually know. Once this happens, I recommend a soft or liquid diet for a day minimum so it heals and your pouch is not inflamed. My two cents.

My question is....... Do you dump on liquid drinks as well? Like a Sweet Tea? I know all about empty calories, not saying I'm gonna be drinking that all day every day but maybe have a glass once a month. I mean I am in the south and it was something I enjoyed drinking it in 110 degree weather!

Sweet tea will most likely make you dump. It has a ton of sugar in it. Depressing I know. I love sweet tea. The Mio sweet tea isn't too bad.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
