Throwing up?

[gabbisha 28]

I haven't thrown up after eating since I was sleeved 8/27. Is that normal.

Yes it is normal! I only threw up a handful of times the first month or two, and those were when I tried new foods (meats) that my stomach was not used to digesting anymore. I would think that throwing up often after eating would be something to be concerned about.... but NOT throwing up should be looked at a sign that you are healing well and that your body is very tolerant to the amounts and types of foods you are ingesting!

Just watch it closely. If you continue to throw up after eating everything call your surgeon, it could be a stricture.

I was sleeved on September 10th and I have not had to nausea or vomiting either. I know it has only been 4 days but I have heard many people experienced some nausea and vomiting during the first week. I am taking it very slow. Drinking on ounce of Water 4 to 5 times in an hour. The sugar free popsicles definitely are refreshing. I am hoping that I do not experience any nausea/vomiting at all.

Yes, it's normal, I'm 2+ years post-op and I haven't thrown up once. It is more normal than you think because people tend to post here about problems rather than smooth sailing, and throwing up is a problem!

I am 15 months post op and have never thrown up. I have been very fortunate.

Why would you want to throw up? I've haven't thrown up since I left the hospital and the only time I threw up in the hospital was when I accidentally swallowed too large a piece of ice post op. Not throwing up is a good thing.

My surgery was on 8/24. I vomited yesterday for the first time. I slugged down a glass of vegetable juice and a few moments later it came back up. I forgot to take small drinks. I gulped.

My surgery was in February 2015 and I have not been nauseous, nor have I thrown up.
