If you vomit, do you try something else immediately?



Recommended Posts

I've had some issues not tolerating foods. I'm learning what to eat and what not to eat. My question is, if you do end up vomiting do you wait a little bit and go find something esle to fulfill the Protein requirement? After what I call one of my little episodes, I just can't face the thought of eating something else so I sort of skip it. I know we're supposed to get in the protein but after facing a potty I just can't face food again right away. Ugh!

I never did try anything else... Last thing on my mind was getting my Protein in... I'm sure that isn't the right answer

Great question. I assume you should count the miscue as a zero protein event. But, it sure is difficult to consume anything for >4 hours thereafter. Anyone have any good advice?

After vomiting I would suggest letting your pouch rest and not worryabout the Protein but get fluids in still

Never thought about letting my pouch rest. THank you so much for adding that. It all feels like a competition and how much Protein you get in per day is the finish line. Ugh, I'm wore out. But thank you for the responses ladies. I hate that y'all are dealing with it too but I'm gladI'm not alone.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
