I had my first bout with the foamies and puking slime up last night. In fact I could have starred in Ghost Busters there was so much slime!! After I was done puking and saw actually how little food I threw up and it was well chewed I wondered what the deal was. I kind of thought most of this was triggered by food getting stuck but the food was moist and well chewed so I thought I'd ask you guys if you do this more with stuck foods or foods that just don't aggree with your pouch? I haven't been close to getting sick after eating something but I do usually on the first couple bites need to burp a couple times then everything goes down good.

Anyway, just wondering when you guys have problems is it more stuck or just foods don't aggree with your pouch.
Thanks,
Stoney

I only had the foamies twice.  Both times on too dry of baked chicken.  Early out I got the "somebody beating on the back of my breastbone" sensation.  Took that as a hint that something was not right.  Stuck food, full, pouch was pissed etc.

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

It could be a stricture...You may want to ask on the RNY Board.  It happens to about 6% of RNY patients...Very treatable.  Check with your surgeon if it continutes to be a problem...I'll post more info later.  Brian

 I have had this a few times and it is either issue but usually its because I ate too fast or took to big of bite.  I puke and sometimes a lot and then I am fine.  I may eat the same thing a few days later and am fine with it as long as i slow down or take smaller bites.  I get it about 1 a week and once I puke I drink extra and can resume eating solids when its time to eat again.  Not having burping issues but do get the foamies which is 95% of what I puke. I have also puked from stuff that dissagrees with me.  It is usually short lived. 90% of my meals are fine it is that one moment where I dont pay attention on one or two bites.
