Let me ask you and others this I'm keep throwing up constantly does anyone else experience this my sleeve was 9,26

Yes I have done it on occasion. It is imperative that you follow all instructions. Most important is never drink at least 20 min. Prior food intake. And eat slowly chewing food carefully. Air can be swollowed if you eat too fast. Bubbles will bring about regurgitate of food and liquids. Triggers are given by your body to tell you your getting close to full. My triggers are 3 different ones. First I feel a sudden empty of my pouch below sleeve into intestine. Then I feel after three bites attachment into lower sleeve. At my 5th bite I tend to get a hiccup if that moment I have to cease anything more. If I do Bad things happen. We all need to pay careful attention to what's going on and if we do we protect our sleeve.

I actually have only thrown up once when I overate. Most of the time if I eat to much I just feel uncomfortable. Even now and again I have a meal like that. Maybe once a month. I also get the hiccups if I eat a lot at once.

      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.
