I have this same thing happen to me. I think that it's basically you
overate so much and it's just sitting there, so everytime you swallow your
saliva it kinda collects, and every once in a while like every 30 min or
so, it gets to be too much and you need to spit/vomit it up. that's my
theory on the foam-vomit! Nothing helps it, especially water, that makes
it worse. I just stop eating/drinking until my pouch empties and then
you'll be fine! :)

Foam means stuck. I stick my finger down to get rid, sip some water and do
it again to get it all. Gross I know, but works.

Sounds more like "stuck" to me than "too much." I
spent 5 hours foaming and puking (sorry!) on Easter due to 1 lousy
shrimp...Finally tea worked...search in library for "stuck food"
and find more answers. Fun! Fun! Fun! At least we know our
"tool" is working!

I have the FOAM when I eat one bite to much. I'm almost two years out and
sometimes I still push it, however usually when it happens I just did'nt
get the full signal soon enough. When this happens, I find it better (if I
can discretly) to go and throw up slightly to release the pressure. Not my
whole meal, just a "tad" to stop the pressure.

Foam and saliva are all that I ever throw up (except for once, when I had
two grape tomatoes which went down and came right back up immediately!). I
had RNY on 2/21/02 and the first three or four months when I vomited
frequently it was the same and when I had gall bladder attacks (September
02, February and March 03, it was still just foam and saliva. Vomiting now
(for me) is entirely different from pre-surgery vomiting and nowhere near
as bad. Nina in Maine
