Cant keep anything down



Recommended Posts

Hello, I had my gastric sleeve august 4 and i was told i could enter phase 2 pureed. So far i cant keep anything in my system. If i have broth my bowel is liquid and unexpected and frequent. If i have anything thicker I'll puke it up. The pain of anything thick going down hurts so much im stunned. Ive been super weak and missed days of work because i cant get out of bed. Is anyone or have anyone experienced this?

Call your surgeon. Be sure to get in Clear liquids and drink something with electrolytes while waiting to hear from surgeon.

Did you try taking smaller swallows? Then pause for a minute or so and take another small amount. I use a baby spoon because it's easy to put a big amount in then it hurts like hell going down if you don't catch yourself. I would def call the Dr. .... Hope it gets better.

Tami, im going to try that. Ive been told by my bf that he thinks im eating and chewing as i did before the surgery and to slow down. I agree the pain of feeling anything go down even after a bite just leaves me stunned. I have to catch myself better. I will still call the doc though. Thank you for your help

You Definitely have to take small bites and small sips. Some Nuts suggest using baby/toddler utensils to keep bites small. Also get the Baritastic App. It has food timers so you can pace yourself.

Hoping you feel better.

Call the Dr. But also use a heating pad or hot wet towel and lay it on your chest it opens you up a bit so the food can go down when it feels stuck.

Cont on liquids. And start warm li guides in the morning. I had to do like 20 to 30cc every 10 min. Made a big difference. If your still throw up its because to much at a time. Pace it out more and drink less. Stay on liquids until your done throw up

      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.
