Throwing up white foam?!?



Recommended Posts

I am15 days out and supposed to start puree food, cottage cheese, etc etc.

I cant seem to keep anything down within an hour any real food comes back up again. I can drink the shakes and Water, popcicles, etc etc. But any real food, doesn't wanna stay down. Is my stomach not ready for real food yet or should I go have it checked out??

I was sleeved in Mexico so would have to go see my doctor or got to urgent care.

I do eat slow and don't mix the liquids with the food, just worried something is wrong.

Anyone have any suggestions??

Your stomach may not be ready for "real" food yet. Give it a few days. My RD told me to try one new food at a time, and only a little bit, to see how it goes. it was good advice.

I just had my procedure on 2/19/18, on 3/2/18 i decided to introduce my new stomach some instant mashed potatoes, i didn't eat but 4 tips of a spoon, later i got the hiccups, then felt like a needed to burp, i couldn't burp without making that beer looking foam come up, maybe i need to chill a little longer before i re-introduce my stomach with mushy foods. I'm just tired of ramen noodle broth every day.

Any suggestions

Raman noodle broth is High in Sodium. Might make you retain Fluid and slow down your loss of weight. Yogurt, sugar free puddings and Jello, thin cream of rice or cream of wheat, cottage cheese. You might even be able to eat soft scrambled egg if you're close to the pureed, mooshy stage.How about a tiny bit of ripe banana? Just a few ideas off the top of my head.

Hey guys... I'm 3 weeks out on mushy foods and today I went for a long walk and since I got back everything I eat or drink comes back up... It's like a thick white foam and saliva.. What did I do to myself?

I'm on my third week as well and have the same symptoms. One of the things I've noticed that helps me is eating very slow and even before I think I'm full I wait 15 minutes. It only takes three spoonfuls of whatever I'm eating to feel very uncomfortable and it feels like it's coming back up. This helped me and I hope it helps you to

Thanks for the heads up on the High Sodium, i just couldn't take another sip of the bland chicken broth, i saw some chicken Soup with low sodium, maybe that will help,

Hi guys.. I am new to this forum.. I have browsed a few times but never commented.

I am 7 weeks post Gastric Bypass. I am having such a difficult time getting down the minimum amount of daily Protein.

And on soft foods but mostly every time I try to eat I get that awful foam!

Thank you for your post Katie Bug (so cute).

      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.
