Thank you everyone for you thoughts. ❤ I have been in for my 3 month check up and have had anothe EGD done. They found that there was a small flap of scar tissue covering half the opening to the new attachment site of the intestines causing the pain as the food was passing through. They hv removed it and I am doing so much better now. I hv now lost 65lbs since surgery and 105lbs from the beginning Of this whole process. I'm so happy and much more healthy now.

Hello everyone, I am new to the group. I am a mother of 3 beautiful kids, medical assistant, and my highest weight was 350lbs. I could not walk, climb stairs, play with my teenage boys, and stayed developing major health risks. So after 2 years of battling insurances, I finally was approved. My surgery was the Roux-n-y, I am now 8weeks post op. I now weight 262lbs..🤗 I have had a number of hard challenges to face. One of my on going challenges is that i can not eat or drink anything with out it feeling like a heavy concrete brick in my stomach. I do not mean burning in my chest because it's too dry to go down. It all goes down just fine..its when it hits my stomach and feels like someone has punched me. With this problem i am afraid of becoming malnourished and dehydrated. I am looking for any help or suggestions to why i might feel this way or have orders on what i can do to help me eat. Thank you for any help.
