After eating meals, even just small snacks I always feel physically sick afterwards. Sort of like a vomit feeling and also bad stomach pains... Has anyone ever felt this way after eating, not sure if I should be concerned?

    Aha no chance of pregnancy and it's only been happening the past fortnight so I don't think I should be going to a doctor just yet.

    What is your weight and height? How many calories are you averaging?

    Yes, you should be concerned. See a health care professional about it ASAP.

    Have you been over restricting yourself?

    Pain and nausea when you eat, but you don't want to go to the doctor because this has "only" been going on for weeks?

    While I wouldn't suggest getting so concerned that you get yourself all worked up into a frenzy, I would suggest that you get concerned enough to call the doctor and ask them if they think that the fact that for the last couple weeks, you've had pain and nausea when you eat is a good reason to make an appointment.

    I'm 5'3-5'4 and 146.2lbs so I've put my weightloss in 1.5lbs per week. I'm averaging anything between 1000-1300 a day, so I don't think I'm under eating. It's just been a pain when I feel sick so I don't necessarily feel hungry..

    That's a good idea! The reason I haven't been to the doctors yet is because I thought it may have been just side effects from my medication, but it's still been happening after I've stopped the medication.

    You are. With your stats, you should have your goal set to a half a pound a week. Remember that you eat 1200 as a base and earn more through exercise.

    I feel the same way I don't know why because it's not like I stuff myself with food so I don't feel stuffed but I feel like whatever I ate will come up I just had cereal and i'm feeling kind of sick right now. when I first got the pain it was at night after I had my dinner so I thought it was because I ate so late but I got the pain again it the morning. :/:s:/:|

    Really?! I was recommended by a P.T at my gym to go for 1-1.5lbs per week. I have been finding it hard to eat back any exercise calories unless I'm eating bad foods. I can't eat breakfast and any meals or snacks through the day make me feel sick and less hungry so even 1300 calories is hard to achieve.

    This happens to me mostly after dinner as well even if I have it relatively early. At least I know I'm not the only one aha! I think mine might have something to do with having to eat my food within a small amount of hours. I don't normally have my first meal until after 12.30pm so normally my lunch and dinner are my two meals and one-two snacks if I feel okay.

    Do you feel sick after certain foods? When I'm training I can't eat gluten or dairy because of the stomach aches so maybe its a food irritation. Do you eat directly after working out and is it typically in liquid form, like smoothies or protein shakes? This can unset the stomach as well because there's not enough solids in the stomach and can cause nausea. At least this is what I have experienced personally.

    The only drinks apart from water I drink is green tea X50 which is just a sachet you put in water and coke zero. I find that no matter what foods whether healthy or unhealthy I have that ill feeling for hours after I eat.

    Have you tried getting rid of the green tea X50?

    I didn't have any of the green tea X50 for two days just to check if it may have been that, but it still ended up being the same! I think I might book in for a doctors appointment sometime this week!

    It could be something serious like gall bladder or gallstones. It could be a delayed after effect of meds. It could be bleeding caused by meds or something else. It could be your diet/nutrition. It could be nothing. But strangers on the internet have no way to know. Best to see a doc or at least call nurse.

    Yes, I do. I'm finally going to a new doctor for a full physical and a referral to see a gastro (my last series of doctors ended with telling me to continue to take OTC antacid pills).

    It's something GERD related, I believe, but I'm so tired of feeling sick so often.
