I was sleeved Dec 19 2016 and have lost 108 lbs in approx 6 months

We live so close! How are you doing so far? I am ok. Still trying to find foods I like. Nothing seems appealing to me.

Brooklyn here. Anyone else in Brooklyn? I could use a friend.

I had my surgery Dec 19 in Brooklyn, NY. It still hurts to swallow most foods. I get this stuck feeling in my throat and chest. It is uncomfortable to eat. I stick to my shakes, smoothies and soup. When I watch other peoples videos, they are eating all types of yummy foods. I just can't do it without feeling or getting sick. I can get down some things, but it feels horrible. I dread eating and do not feel healthy. My heartburn is off the chain but I am using medication which helps. Is anyone else this far along experiencing the same thing. Should I worry about a stricture? Are there any tests that can be done to see if everything is ok.

Hi! Thankfully that horrible feeling went away. Previous posters are correct when they say to eat slower and take small bites...it really helps. My Dr told me I was still healing....even with small bites it still occured but it got much better. I hope any of you suffering from this gets better too!

YES!!!!

How are you doing now? I am 2 mnths out and feeling the same way
