Has anyone been having issues eating eggs or drinking milk? Eggs use to be my favorite,but now they hurt my stomach. milk with cereal was my favorite, but is now giving me issues! My stomach cramps and hurts so bad with either of them and it send me straight to the restroom. Any suggestions? Maybe a different brand?

Thanks for your response! It do get very discouraging at time. I almost regret having the surgery every other day. I can’t really eat much now, but I’m able to hold more solids(soft) than before. I’m on a soft Biatric diet. I try eating whole wheat cereals like Cheerios. I have to let them get really soggy before eating. Unfortunately, the milk is just not agreeing with me anymore! So I’m done for now with that! How far out are you? Does it really get a little better (as far as good and drink intake) down the road?

Hello, I’m actually post op. I’m almost a month out.

Hi, I went through a very similar situation. My employer actually changed our insurance carrier. I had to meet the new qualifications for weight lose surgery with the new insurance. What was initially a 3 months diet turned into 6 mths diet. Hopes this help!

Hello, I’m 2 weeks post gastric sleeve surgery. I can’t really eat or drink much of anything. I’m on a soft Bariatric diet, but I’m struggling finding meals that will go down normal without filling me up after two bites. Mashed potatoes does well, but is not strongly recommended by doctor. Have anyone else found other substitutes besides protein shakes? Does this get better in time? I knew my relationship with food would change, but dang! I just want it to go down normal.

Thank you guys so much! You have really helped me a lot.
