Default First upchuck, don't like them

I am 1 month and 3 days past surgery, Today was my first time to vomit. I was eating something that I have eaten before (vinison meat loaf) and after the first couple of bites the third or fourth bite hit like a ton of bricks. The pain was awful and then the vomiting started.

I have had wonderful luck picking out very healthy foods to eat but this was very confusing due to eating the item before. Any thoughts anyone?

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Sometimes, what worked yesterday doesn't work today.
Also, did you chew chew chew chew and then chew some more before swallowing?
When you think it should be fine because it was before, you may uncosnciously be less careful about chewing.
It is all a learning curve.

Chewing is soooo key... my only problems have been with my Calcium supplements and believe it or not, carrots! Calcium is better now that I don't drink 10 minutes before or after, as for the carrots, I chew them much better!

Oh boy, I have had this too, one day chicken/beef is okay, and the next I'm heaving like a fountain. Now, I have found that the moister my meat is the easier it goes down. So now I do not over cook chicken or beef and it seems better, no up chucking. Was that meatloaf dry at all? And as the other said, chew chew chew!

That has happened to me when I was in a hurry. So rushing it and not chewing well enough is usually the culprit for me.

I agree with the chew chew chew....I cuaght myself the other night taking a bite chewing , but before done chewing 3 times Iwas shoving another bite n my mouth...force of natur I think from the past life but after that i sat my spoon down until i was finished with first bite..I have been one of the unfortunate ones when it comes to , went my first week this past week without it and out of the blue yesterday had foamies all day and only wished i could have got rid of it all...you take care and hopefully you can enjoy your venison soon again...hugs , Annie

My list of what I don't want to eat has more than quadrupled since wls.

Not a problem because in reality I don't really care much for food any more. I eat 3 times a day, sometime enjoy a sweet treat, seldom too much of anything.

I had several small vomit sessions in the beginning and I agree not pleasant but a small price to pay for how it all turned out a year later.

Personally I never would have been into something as rich as venison 1 1/2 months after surgery. Heck I was just getting into eggs around then, some soups and seldom anything too rich or spicy.

You can reject what you eat for a number of reasons. Doc brought up the chewing one. Large pieces of food could cause rejection. If you had reached your physical capacity (too much for your pouch) you may reject the food. If it is too rich, too sweet, too spicy, too bland or just not the right time you could find your system wanting to reject the food.

This is your body helping you deal with a decision to make a change in your food consumption when you are not mature enough to make the right decision yourself. Thank goodness, it helped my immaturity at meals many times. At times I had to leave my work and go home (only once or twice).

You know what is funny? A year from now these few periods of what I will call an inconvenience will be pretty much nothing more than a memory of an event so don't fret about it. Be thankful that your body and more in particular your new pouch are doing their job.

Best of luck.

Thanks everyone your input is so welcome. I do chew, chew and chew past the point of mush. The vinison was moist and extreamly tender and I did not put hardly any seasoning into the meat loaf.

Today once again I did the upchuck thing after two bites of chicken breast. This time it was worse, my innerads still hurt. I will keep trying to maintain. I am getting worried about the protein so I did shakes earlier in the day prior to the chicken.

Thanks, I love all of you for the help.
