Has anyone been vomiting after eating? I've cheated a few things and ate stuff a little ahead of my phases, but even when I eat what I'm supposed to I vomit ocassionally

Not every meal but man. At least twice or three times a week. It's not painful. I feel full, get sick and I'm perfect again. A few of the times I know it was because I drank too soon after. But I just want to make sure I'm not alone.

I sometimes dry-heave when I first wake up in the morning but I've started having Water by my bed and drinking before getting out of bed. It seems to help. I don't think you're supposed to be vomiting. You may wish to contact your clinic just to be sure. Sometimes vomiting is a result of eating too quickly or drinking while eating or too soon after eating. Are you doing any of those things? I'd also recommend measuring everything to make sure you're not accidentally eating too much. I would love to tell you you're not alone but from the literature my clinic gave me, we're not supposed to be vomiting. You need to follow the diet guidelines carefully though to give your body time to heal. I'd avoid moving through the stages too quickly. Hope this helps.

Same here. The numbers are changing on the scale, but I don't see it on my waistline yet. Looking forward to having that -horrible- problem of flying through sizes!

I am in a super long stall and I am doing everything right (I think, lol!)... I have even been walking a lot more. The only thing I can think of is that I am not get ENOUGH calories...?... I've been logging on my fitness pal and hope to see the scale move soon! I've lost 40 overall (2wk pre op + post op) which is great, but weight has only moved a pound or so in over a week. I am in that dreaded 3rd week, though, so hopefully this passes soon :) One month on Thursday! :)

Also, had not done this before, but I took my measurements this morning. Always hate doing that because I am never sure how snug to make the measuring tape, but figured it was a good idea to start and that I might see more results that way instead of just looking at the scale. My clothes are looser, but I have been wearing stretch stuff for so long, all my "big" clothes still fit, just hang more than usual :)

I live in scrubs most of the time. It's like going to work in really comfy pajamas but it's hard to see any change in fit until it's pretty major. I put on jeans today for the first time in a long time and I couldn't tell you if they fit any differently. BUT...oddly enough...my bra fit is weird now. Comfy, and the 'girls' don't look any different, but looser...

I think I may be eating too much or too soon with my Water. It's so hard to get everything in and food. I'm required 64 oz water and 3 meals a day. I can't do 3 meals. I had turkey slices and cheese today and I was fine. Then for dinner I had chicken and peas. Ate like 2 peas and a few bites of chicken and I vomited. But my chicken was spicy. So maybe that's it.. idk. I'll have to call my clinic and ask.

yes, my bra! totally notice a different in the bra… my underwire used to flare out on the sides and poke me in my arms (had to wear it with some of my work shirts), but now it sits nice and flat almost :)

      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.
