Started Soft Foods Today

[Cara-Lea 41]

Hi all, I am 2.5 weeks post-op and today, as per my program I started soft foods.

I have a question about my sleeve "rejecting" foods. I know that when I introduce a new food, it is possible my sleeve won't like it and I will vomit. I was wondering, how quickly will this happen after eating the food my sleeve isn't ready to accept? Is it very quick - like within a couple of minutes or does it take a while - like 30 minutes?

I also know to NOT drink any Water for at least 30 minutes after eating. I have been doing this right from the start of my full fluids (soup, yogourt and oatmeal) diet.

Thanks!!

I barfed for the 1st time yesterday. I'm in stage 4 and am allowed meats so I tried ground beef. I had a bite or two to many and was very uncomfortable for the next 30 minutes waiting to take a sip of Water. After about 40 minutes I took a very small sip, went for a second but had to hold it in my mouth because the nausea hit me quick. Walked to the trash can and got rid of the whole 1/2 oz of meat I had eaten. Won't be trying that again for some time.

Like I said it's the 1st time so can't say if it was fullness or the meat but I'm sure if I had taken another bite I would have had the same result sooner.

Hi. I’m on puréed foods (sleeved July 10th). If something is going to come back up it’s usually within a couple (two) minutes. This morning it was my pills. Last week it was eggs - but I retried the eggs and they have agreed with me since.

It happens when I eat too fast. I am still trying to slow down.
