Cheating and VERY upset stomach

[alexiarenee]

Does anyone ever experience this?
Everytime I go out and eat a big, very unhealthy meal ( like last night- big Christmas dinner at mom's, cheesecake and everything ). I wake up in the middle of the night with the worst stomach cramps and nauseated feeling. I will look in the mirror and notice that my stomach is huge! Its looks like all my food is stuck in my upper stomach. It looks so funny cuz my lower abs are flat, but I have this huge upper belly.
Most of the time, I'll have to go to the rr and throw up to make myself feel better. No, I am not bulimic or anything, its just that when this happens it's the only thing that'll make the huge bloat and nauseating feeling go away.
Does anyone else ever experience this????????

I'm just guessing (based on personal experience), but I'll bet you're pretty strict with your diet when you not in holiday eating mode. What you describe is very common IMHO. The stomach becomes unaccustomed to large volumes of food. I also get this if I eat a truckload of veggies when I'm dieting. The area under the ribcage becomes distended and very uncomfortable. Volume is the problem. If you stuck to high calorie, low fiber foods you might find it easier. Or if you just ate less over all. But if you eat too much in one sitting (without being accustomed to it) then I guarantee you will feel gross for a while afterwards.

I feel bloated and fat and just plain uncomfortable when I eat crap. Basically made myself miserable yesterday - just kept shoveling it in, not really enjoying it. :-( Sometimes I hate myself

my experience

I used to get that upset stomach when I would cheat for a day after eating clean for an extended period of time.

I would not get nauseous however, I would just get the 'runs' (sorry for being gross)

Same here. I also get the 'runs' when I have a cheat meal, but this is just due to my body not being used to the higher amount of fat in the cheat meal.

I also don't get nauseous though.

But it does taste damn nice at the time I'm cheating.

I always thought it was the sugars that irritated the bowels...

Am I wrong?
