Can anyone tell me if its common to be sick after a meal.

I have been ok before stage 3 however 3nights running i have vomited after a meal with a pain in my chest area. Is that food going down.

You MAY want to call the dr. Could be a stricture.

It's when your opening is closing and won't allow food to go through. Could be scar tissue as well.

I am five months out and this still happens to me! I have no stricture. I think it's fairly common to occasionally have something disagree with your pouch. You should know that I still cannot eat a scrambled egg without throwing it up. My nutritionist says that they're very hard to digest after RNY. Do not panic! You may have ate too fast, ate to much or it may just be that it was the egg.

After I experience this I go back to basics. Easy on the pouch for a few days and then I'm fine.

One more thing - I'm not suggesting that you not call your doctor - you should. Just be kind to your pouch - step back to stage 2 for a day or two and see where it goes. Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your help. Thats great info and will take your advise to step back

      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.
