Do you find that vomiting has become part of your post VSG life?



Recommended Posts

I felt slightly nauseated for the first few days post-op but never threw up. I've stuck religiously to the diet, instead of trying to eat until full. So I've felt rather good overall.. slightly tired. But not like I need to vomit.

I'm just about 3 months out and have found that I have thrown up more than I'd like.

After surgery I was vomiting a lot. Now I've also found if I've eaten too much or too fast I'll vomit. So I'm learning to slow down etc.

But I also find that just about any type of meat makes me vomit no matter how well I chew or how slowly I eat.

I think my sleeve just hates me sometimes but my surgeon doesn't seem concerned. I e spoken with him a few times about it and all the nausea I have each day. So not sure what else to do as he offers no meds to help with nausea. Just tells me to tough it out and it'll get better.




Hi

I was like you and though it would never end. I didn't over eat but maybe ate a bit fast. Drs didn't seem bothered at all. Now 6 months out and it has finally settled down about 1 month ago. If I forget and eat to fast I do still feel ill but seem to be able to keep it down. Hope it starts to settle for you soon. Xx

Thank you. Glad it finally settled down for you.

8 weeks out, no nausea or vomiting, nothing seems to bother my stomach. Sometimes I wonder if I had a sleeve done at all but since I get full fast it is a reminder that I did have it done

I'm only two months out but I have thrown up two times. Both were due to an Iron supplement and I just vomited it back up.

I'm six weeks out and have not vomited even once, not even when I ate things I really shouldn't have. Which is good because I have emetophobia and get a panic attack every time I puke lmao.

It's luck of the draw, from what I understand.

Oh great. I have the lapband and what everyone's describing sounds just like how getting stuck feels and sliming with my band I hate. Are any of you band to sleeve conversions? Is it the same?

I had a lap band and have no problems with vomiting or getting food stuck... but then again I am still on liquid... I can bend and move better into certain positions and don't feel like it gets stuck any more when I move.. like I use to .. Sometimes I would feel the band get twisted or prevent me from bending

I vomit a lot. Not fun at all. I get a lot of foamies too. My stomach is very sensitive to food and anything can set it off. Doesn't always have to do with eating fast for me. Literally can't eat eggs, cherries or the flavor and the list goes on

Everytime I eat I get a stomach ache. There have been times where I came close to vomiting. My surgeons office told me it's because I am eating too much. That 4 bites is all I should be taking at each meal. Not happy [emoji53]

      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.
