Last night I had a cup of Snickers ice cream around 9pm. I woke up at 12am and started spitting up the most fowl tasting battery acid, I have never experienced this in my life. I was actually on the verge of calling 911 I thought my insides were going to come up. Has anyone experienced this?

Yes but not with ice cream....It is pretty horrible if you can't throw it up and it just sits there...Obviously your tummy does not like ice cream...learning as you go I see! :)

Did your doctor tell you it was ok to eat ice cream? If so he must be looking for future revenue by having to re sleeving his clients.

Please young man you did this to change your ways. If you want to succeed you must change!

Sorry if I sound like an mean old lady.

But I care.

Oh then that explains it...For Pete's sake...stay on the program at least until your sleeve heals..That was taking a huge chance..You don't want complications trust me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I just figured when the ice cream melts in your mouth it's like a liquid, but oh man was I wrong.

Ice cream is not considered a liquid in any state...It coats your stomach as it lays there....Neither is pudding or even Jello..Of course others might not agree with the Jello part but that is what my nut told me.....

lesson learned eh...good for you! :)

Protein Shakes are "like" a liquid and they don't kill you. Now is the time to dig down deep and find some inner strength. You didn't have the surgery for nothing did you?

I'm guessing it was the peanut/chocolate/caramel thing! Especially the peanuts... Even though there are just a few, that must have been really rough on your sleeve!

I waited until after week 6 to venture into a little bit of ice cream. And when I say "little bit" I mean about 3-4 small spoonfuls to curb a craving. You just had surgery last week. Just because it's a liquid doesn't mean its okay to consume at such an early stage.

Lets hope that you didn't do any further internal damage.

you shouldn't eat nuts or seeds until at least 4 months out. This is different than a pre-op diet if you "cheat"--it can seriously cause serious and lasting medical issues. Please stick to the liquid diet your doctor or RD gave you. For the first 3 weeks all I had were Clear Liquids, Protein Shakes, hot tea, etc. It was really difficult but my stomach was healing and I knew that wasn't the time to test boundaries. No solid food for 6 weeks.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
