Thank you for the response. I guess I shouldn't be too upset. I am 5 months from surgery and I am almost at my goal weight. My doctor was very agressive with getting me back to food very early in the process and I see that many people at my stage are just starting food. I had a sandwich 3-4 weeks after mine. Yes, just about everything I eat does this within seconds of the first bite but it does get easier when I eat one bite, wait for the nausea to susbside and then continue eating slowly. No medicine seems to work and I am realizing that it might be a year or more before this gets significantly better. I guess it is just one of those things.
