  1. Am I normal? I have lost 22 lbs since the week before surgery when I started the liquid diet and I can only eat two or three bites before I get that pressure in my chest?

      Yes, perfectly normal.

      I would say yes. I am three weeks post-op and after I had switched to soft foods, I had ate 1/2 cup of creamed soup a couple days in a row, then all of the sudden I got that pain. The following day I cut back to 1/4 cup and have been fine since.

      It is so hard to eat more often and follow the 30/30 rule, because now that I am eating, I am not getting 64 ounces in. It's a catch 22!

      Try eating less and eating slower, even when it's something like soup. Also try standing up and walking after eating.
