I can't believe this!

Since having my surgery I have thrown up twice and the last time was at about 4 months post op. Well tonight I ate a couple bites of grilled chicken breast in low carb bbq sauce and I just suddenly knew something was wrong. I then went into the bathroom and threw up 4 times! Now what is up with that? I eat chicken breast all the time, practically every day. I think my first bite might have been too big and got stuck and then every other bite just piled on top of it. It was such a relief when I finally puked! I think sometimes I forget I had surgery because I feel so "normal" so I forget to chew chew chew. Anyone else ever do that? That was about an hour and a half ago and I just ate a string cheese stick because my tummy was a little hungry since I threw up my entire dinner. The cheese stayed down fine. Oh well, I'll chew better next time! Leighann Lap RNY 11.5.04 275/158/130 -117

Hiya Leighann, I am sorry you went through that. I guess taking small bites and chewing thoroughly will be something we will always have to do. I am glad you are feeling better now! God bless you and keep you, ~Andrea

HI Leighann, You could also have had trouble with the bbq sauce. I have not dumped, but recently had bbq sauce on a rib. I had violent pains for about an hour. Of course it was called Sweet Baby Ray's!! What was I thinking? Leann

Yes, this happens to me also. It is because we are eating to fast and not chewing our foods well enough. Just the other day I went out to eat order some salmon eat it all the time and some mushroom. Well it didn't sit well in my stomach at all. I wait over an hour it got worst all I could do was to throw up my $16.00 salmon , but boy did I feel better . Sometimes, I think I can eat anything and that is not the case. Keep up the wonderful work.
