Ok... I have tried pureed/ softfoods....and it gets stuck. I chew 20 plus times...its not making a difference. The pressure in my chest causes me to vomit. Everything I eat isn't appetizing and causes discomfort. I am just so tired and frustrated...I have no interest in eating. I don't want to drink protein shakes and soup broth forever. I used to love food....now I don't want to see it. Nxt Tuesday ill be 4 weeks out . I sure hope it gets better. ...needless to say after losing 30 lbs post surgery. ..I hit a stall to top it off.

No.

I am going to call the doc in the morning. .. thank u!!!

My doc says to be patient and continue nexium. I never had acid reflux before.

Thank u! Liquids go in with no problem I gulped my Water once becauseI was so thirsty. ... and boy I learned my lesson... only sips now. I chew my food until its dry and then it gets stuck. ... then I can't drink anything to wash it down .

I'm a lil over 3 wks post op. Anything I eat causes me chest comfort. I think I'm eating slowly. Just feels like food gets stuck... then I begin to burp and sometimes my food comes up. What can I do?

So far I lost 32 lbs since surgery. When I eat sko there is about a min or two btwn each bite...is that slow enough? Usually happens when I eat.

I was the same exact height and weight. I'm two and half weeks out at 261. I am so excited. Can't wait to b 203 soon.

You look great!!!!

How much can u get in?

I am still hot! I'm a lil over two wks out 23 lbs down..... when will my cooling begin...can't wait!

Where can I find that? Thx for the advice!

So glad ur doing well. I ended up bk in the hospital due to not being able to tolerate liquids. Once in the er they found that I was dehydrated. I frequently fatigue .... not sure if u can get access to G2 gatorade its magic ic for energy . Keepin u in my prayers for a speedy recovery and tolerance.

That sounds great! Ill have to try it. Ty. I been on refried beans with salsa and low fat cheddar cheese......I love spanish and italian food.

My nut said that hunger pains could b thirst....so drink first if it continues then try a high protein substance.....preferably protien shake. Wishing u the best!

Hi everyone! I was sleeved 1/8.... on puree foods.... refried beans seem to b my go to. I drink mainly water, herbal tea and g2. G2 really made a difference in my energy level. Morning I have an EAS shake , lunch refried beans with salsa and reduced fat cheese......yummy.... dinner yogurt and or refried beans. When can I go to the gym?

Hi everyone! Tomorrow I am two weeks post op. I am experiencing dizziness and low energy. Anyone have that problem?
