Does anyone else overeat and vomit?

I'm 6 wks post op and have been over eating and vomiting. I have to have an endoscopy done to see if my stoma is too small. I don't think so. I have been over eating, drinking with meal (just to eat more), and vomiting my food just because I can with ease. I can't keep meats down well, they work their way back up in my chest. Food can stay in my pouch for five to six hours if I don't drink. I am always thirsty. I can tell I have stretched my pouch by the amount of food I have vomited. Food that I can hold with no pain. I can't lay down flat with food in my pouch or it comes back up. Water dose the same thing too. If I want to sleep and I know I have food in my pouch I have to empty by vomiting so than it will not work its way back up while I am sleeping. No one told me this would not be easy to do. I am starting to think this surgery was not the right thing for me to have done. I started OA meeting and I hope they help me work through this before something bad happens. Like death.
