puking

littlefroggy · January 2, 2009

I puked today at lunch. I ate about 3 bites of chicken, and had a major "stuck" issue and threw up what I had eaten. I am out of town and have no shakes or anything w/ me. I am drinking a jamba juice because it was at the airport and what was available. I got the all fruit one (218 cal) because they were out of soy Protein and I don't drink whey.< /p>

Anyway, does your doctor tell you no solids for 2 days after vomiting?

I am VERY hungry- as it's 4:20 and all I ate today was an egg white and a bit of avocado.

I only vomited one other time and that was before I even had any restriction.

hey! I had my first really stuck episode yesterday and it scared the crap out of me. You have this feeling like is it never going to get unstuck!!! Anyway, it did. I tried to eat a kids burrito from Moe's and the tortilla got stuck. I finally found out what sliming was too. My husband had to pull over so i could get out of the car and I managed to get it down without throwing up. No more tortillas or any bread for me. I have not had bread but once since surgery but since my third fill a few days before Christmas, the doctors office told me no more bread. Sorry, but I am not sure about the liquids after vomiting. Just be careful and call the doctors office tomorrow to find out.

I have actually posted before in regards to food getting stuck and the slime. I get "stuck" at least once a day. My last fill was November 20th. It is like this always. People say that the band may be too tight but yet I don't ever feel like I'm really full. In fact, I can eat pork with no problem (like today) but then have something like a piece of lunch meat (chewed very well) get stuck. It is so frustrating!!! I am beginning to think that it isn't even getting stuck at my stomach but more in my esophagus as it just seems "instant" when it happens. Swallow the food and then it's stuck. When this happens, I can go through bouts of throwing up 5-10 times!!! After this bout, I can eat "normal" again (normal for me is chewing very well, no bread, etc...). Anyway, just my two cents....

No need to go back to liquids or softs. I'm in the "trial" phase too, just got my first fill, and have a lot of things get stuck. The first bite of anything seems to be a problem. For me, just waiting a few minutes is all I need, and to pay more attention to bite size, chewing and the moisture of what I'm eating.
