Well, it just MIGHT be able to keep it down, but this is the very reason we say to wait a week or so, then feed a VERY small meal, like the others have said(which I totally agree with) it is PARAMOUNT that it doesn't keep regurging, this is something you cannot risk by offering too big of a meal at this point. The snake MUST be able to regain it's stomach acids/enzymes to digest properly. Also, make SURE it is kept warm enough to help with digestion(lower to mid 80's) for a while. This will ensure the snake's health steadily goes up, and not down like a rock dropped into water. This is more important than most snake owners understand.
