Silly newbie mushies question

Ok, just had my first non liquid meal in 4 weeks tonight!

I had 2 oz. of moist cooked flounder and 1/4C of mashed potatoes. I wanted some soft cooked veggies but my list says that's week 4.

So my question to all the veterans out there -- how long would it take me to PB or vomit. I ate slow. Chewed well. Stopped when I was full. It's been about 15 minutes -- would I have gotten sick already? When that happens is it an immediate thing?

I told you guys it was a silly question.

Usually its pretty immediate. You will feel pain or discomfort as if you've swallowed a golf ball, you will produce a lot of saliva. That can go on for ages, or it can result in vomiting.

For me, the actual vomiting can take a good 45 minutes to occur, but I know its going to! its not like you'll eat lunch, be back at work and suddenly throw up on your desk!

Other people can eat, think oh that doesnt agree and go and get rid of it seemingly at will. For me it has to be a huge production. We're all different.
