nausea/vomiting after eating?
kind of hesitant to post this but its NOT intentional. For the past couple of days after eating I've gotten a really sick feeling in my stomach that leads sometimes to throwing up (and not like completely ridiculous quantities of food.. today it happened after eating salad, veggies and roasted potatoes with coffee/cappuccino, yesterday it happened after eating 1/3 bag of chips with salsa and cheese). I had the same sort of thing a couple of months ago that lasted a couple of weeks and i went to the doctors for x rays but didnt find anything, and it doesnt feel like a flu/cold because its just after I eat and i'll start to feel sick and then whatever i just ate will be back in my mouth (sorry.. gross) anyone had any (non intentional non induced) experiences of the same sort or suggestions?

You mentioned dairy in both things listed. Is it possibly some kind of lactose intolerance?
are you stressed at all?
sometimes i get the same way... when i was 9, i was diagnosed with a "pyloric spasm" which is sort of an under-developed ulcer. basically, it's like acid reflux... totally sucks.
mostly had to do with stress. tricks that i found helped me and help me to this day:
chewing gum, drinking carbonated water, staying clear of all greasy/fast foods and starchy carbohydrates (ie potatoes)
pregnant?
i was thinking acid reflux too even if it isnt so much 'acid-like' perhaps?
Are you eating to the point of being full and then exercising? I know that sometimes a super hard work out after eating too recently can be like that for me.
I have had that before. I never vomited, but there was a period of a couple weeks where eating just about anything made me feel nauseas. It might be a bug or something. Never figured out what caused it for me, but I'm glad it's gone :)
Hopefully yours will go away too!
I have had stomach issues for the past 6 years and it sucks. I had a couple of dieticians who would tell me that the vegetables are hard to digest with a sensitive stomach (will cause discomfort and maybe diarrhea) and should stay away until eating is stabilized (until no nauseau, no vomiting with several days of normal digestive functioning). She would also tell me that the caffeine is very detimental for eating when having stomach problems; it causes irritation in the digestive system and will keep you from eating correctly--i.e. suppresses your appetite and causes more acid. NOT GOOD; it's best to eat more in the morning and less the rest of the day but my dieticians have also said eat small meals throughout the day if possible until the disruption goes away or if you wanna lose weight. The heated and spicy aspect of salsa would also cause irritation in stomach lining, etc.
I was hospitalized twice, where one hospitalization lasted for four days and the other for five days for hyper-style and non-stop vomiting. The doctors could not find the cause. My med school friends also have told me that hospitalization is a severe thing and were very worried about me.
The dieticians I saw were exclusive ones from Newport Beach (south OC)--one was featured in People Magazine and gave eating advice to Hollywood stars and the other was booked for months and would not see new patients unless recommended by one of her colleagues--MD's, clinics, etc.
All my doctors and dieticians felt I had an eating disorder but i started seeing a shrink, who told me that she did not believe that I had one. The doctors and dieticians recommended drinking soy milk, taking "Mother's" vitamins (a health food market chain in south orange county), BRAT diet when sensitive (bread-rice-applesauce-toast). BRAT is key for feeling better, especially with a sour stomach.
