Is this okay?

Hi! I am down to 228lbs(from 289).Everything is going great,but was wondering if im the only one with the problem of not being able to throw-up.I have been really sick at times when i tried the wrong foods,and i cant even make myself throw up.was just wondering if im normal,or should i mention this to the doctor?

yes I would call your doctor, Ihaven't heard that before..be safe god bless...ron in arizona

Oh, I wish I had that problem. What I have noticed is that I can only throw up a little bit each time, so it might take over an hour to get over it! Pre-WLS, it might just be one time, and then I would feel fine after that, but now it seems to go on and on. Very annoying, to say the least! I think you should talk about it with your doctor, too, but in the meantime just count your blessings! ~~ Leslie

I have had no problem throuwing up. I just did it about 20 mins ago. Call the doctor.

I would mention it, but it's probably not a big problem. If your body needs to throw up, it will.

i havent thrown up the first time...experienced dumping...ie: sweating, headache, having to lie down afterwards...but never once thrown up. i havent eaten any sugary foods...havent wanted to try. Lissa

I am not able to throw up either. I don't know why, but it really doesn't bother me that much. If I feel a little sick, I usually take a few small sips of water and lay down for a few minutes until it passes.

I have the same problem. There have been a few times when I felt so sick after I ate, but I couldn't throw up. I've even gone in the bathroom and tried to make myself, but it didn't work. I was going to ask my doctor about this too. Let us know what you find out if you talk to your doctor. Melissa
