Very normal. It took me until the third week to just start feeling normal. I also realized the not satisfied feeling had more to do with flavor and all the sweet or fake sweet of the early part of the diet.

Who's your doctor?

Good luck. I did not have this problem pre op and post op I was looking at getting some fiber gummies. I ended up getting digestive advantage probiotic gummy. So far so good. No problem.

I am in the exact same place you are. It's frustrating and makes me feel like I am failing. I know I just need to adjust to my new life but I haven't had a problem w any foods. Kinda wish I did so I would learn not to nibble

This video shows you why http://formerfatdudes.com/friends-dont-let-friends-drink-and-eat/

I was on it. No problems for me

There is a crust less pizza recipe on this forum

My doc said not to worry about this so early out. It's more about getting real food that your stomach can handle.

I was the same way so I have added back one shake w 30 grams. I hate it but it seems to be working to keep my protein at the right levels

Laura-ven - I feel for you. PC is still a medical mystery and yet becoming more commonplace. It is something I think about far more than I wish to. My six year old has the genetic mutation for hereditary pancreatitis. In 2011 he spent 90 in the hospital and did not eat real food for five months. His genetic pre-disposition also increases the likelihood for PC. I lost a friend last summer to this awful disease - 6 weeks after diagnosis. I personally believe it is one of the most underfunded medical problems facing us today. When you feel better check out purple stride.org. There are great ways to honor your friend and support an organization that is striving to find a cure for this silent killer. It's hard now and only time takes away the pain but sometimes channeling it into something bigger can soothe the soul as well.

This happened to me exactly. Then in week two. Nothing. Nada. Waiting for it to break

here you go.....this explains it all http://formerfatdudes.com/friends-dont-let-friends-drink-and-eat/

There is actually a great you tube video that shows why. They put applesauce in a funnel. As you slowly add just a few sips of water it's amazon how quickly it passes through the system. Ill see if I can find a link

Me too! this is the hardest part and I haven't even fully adjusted yet

I was told at least six weeks. sad when blackberries are in season!

Also my husband made a pot if beans. Blended and strained it. Really helped. Yogurt too

I was I'm your exact shoes. All post op diets are different. I added full liquids a few days early but took it slow. Blended cream soups. A couple of tbls at a time.

The fudge pops are good but you can also make you own w pudding and some protein powder

Wow. How much did you lose? Was it all in the belly?

Laura-ven - what's a daily menu like for you. Your numbers look great. Wondering how to get my protein up and my carbs down. Any guidance is appreciated.

I'll try those. I've been living on minute maid lemonade light.

Congrats! I am a twin - it is a special relationship

I was the exact same way. Didnt feel restriction for a couple of weeks

I do not recommend doctors. You are better off in Plano

I make mine w Greek yogurt but there is Bolthouse dressings that are yogurt based. I haven't tried them yet.
