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



Recommended Posts

I vomited my first night home. That's it. I'm never nauseated. I'm five weeks out and besides fatigue (which is slowly improving) and eating small amounts I wouldn't even know I had surgery.
I feel for those who are feeling sick. That sounds so miserable. I hope it passes for you all.

No, I have only thrown up once...when I was 2 days post op and tried to eat a giant chewable Vitamin. I'd call my dr to discuss this asap.

I have only vomited once and that was after eating too quickly. I am almost four months post-op and haven't found anything that disagrees with my stomach.

I'm a little over a month out and have experienced vomiting pretty constant since my sleeve on December 7th 2016. I to have wondered about this. Sometimes it's I realized I hadn't took my stomach pill at that time and others it didn't matter if I had or not. I feel if it's like trial and error as if learning what to and what not to eat and how much as well as how fast to eat.

What stomach pill are you talking about? I didn't get a stomach pill just wondering thanks.

Hope this isn't like when i had my lap band I would get stuck with everything except the bad food. This time i have vowed to eat slower and chew more.

I threw up tonight after dinner. I tried some turkey meatballs, and I didn't remember to follow the advice to "lubricate" them (mayo, margarine, gravy, etc). I also may have had one or two too many.

It's really amazing how unforgiving my sleeve is, but I'm learning to listen to her. Sometimes I get the message a bit too late.

The hardest part for me is separating my liquids and my food. When I start to feel sick my first impulse is still to take a great big swig of Water like I used to in the old days. That's a big no-no.

I'm learning, slowly.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
