Since I can't tell when I get full I think I ate too much and vomited. Sorry to be graphic but it just came right up and out. Good thing I was smart enough to go to the bathroom when I got the feeling.

I havent had that happen yet. The gross thing that happens to me is I have saliva or mucus come up after eating. Almost like my stomach says "here, hold this, I need to make some space". I eat privately because of this.

What you are doing is called maybe not professionally but around the WL peeps is "FOAMIES" I have had my share of vomiting. I had Strictures and couldn't even keep Water down. Strictures are basically scar tissue. All is GREAT NOW!!

This is why you need to measure/weigh your food and eat very, very slowly. Are you still on purees or are you on soft or full diet? It takes a few times to realize what satiated feels like, going slow will give you a bit more leeway so you don't vomit.

Today is 1 month Post Op. I can start solid food today. I was eating Hummus last night and yes I wasn't paying attention. You can believe that it will not happen again.

That isn't being graphic. Being graphic is describing the taste coming up, the feeling as it shot from your body, the smell of the vomit, comparison of the color to that of 70's shag carpet, explaining the size of the chunks, giving us the distance of the projection and finally how hard it was to clean it up after it hit your cat but your dog helped with some of the clean up by eating most of it.

No sir, your standards are too low. You're going to have to try harder next time.

It's gross, huh? For me, vomiting post op is MUCH different than before. And yes even when you're an old WLS hag like me, you can eat too much or your sleeve won't like something or you'll have too much acid building up in your stomach and..........yup.

YES. This was my first oopsie as well. Mindless eating, not paying attention.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
