4 weeks out and Everyday , everything I eat comes back up, hurts like h. e double hockey sticks until I vomit. This is becoming frustrating and can only eat a bite or two maybe. Plays with my mind on so many levels as one minute I so regret , so frustrated with my self for even getting this surgery , and some days I look forward to the healthy rewards. Smh

Hang in there, it should get better but...on the other hand, vomiting can be caused by strictures or an ulcer. Are you eating slowly and small bites? Sometimes if you drink or eat too fast it can make you vomit or have pain. Too big of bites can too. Is this something new or has it been going on for awhile? You could call your team just to be safe. Tell them what is gong on. Good Luck Keep us in the know!!!

Sounds like your doctor needs to do an EGD. Sometimes the opening to the new stomach pouch is too small and has to be stretched open with a balloon a bit. Happened to my mom post-op.

Yes @WifeyMaterial: me as well I do Water and the G2 Gatorade. Get you some of that you will like it and also do your Protein shakes that replaces your meals if you can't eat. But I so know about that pain you talking about. Horrible

@Shedo82773: yes I eat slow , take small bites and and chew it well , no matter what I do it comes up. This sucks. I said to my sister I never looked forward to throwing up until I experienced the pain I have if I don't vomit.

That was exactly how I felt. I had strictures. I had 5 endoscopes with 4 dilations. Starting just about 2 months after my RNY. ( July 2, 2013) I finally called and went in for my 1st in NOV of 2013, then in Dec 2013. Jan 2014 July 2014 with my last one in Jan of 2015. I haven't had any more trouble thank goodness. I feel like that is part of the reason I lost my weight so fast. I could hardly hold down Water. Lots of vomiting. At first, it was so hard to throw up it hurt so bad!! Then it got to where it wasn't an effort at all. Scary stuff. So keep on it, my friend. You have to be pushy sometimes. Dr's need to be pushed to find out what is going on. Good luck

      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.
