Hello all! i got a gastric sleeve on 9/25 and seem to still be having a lot of difficulty eating. I can’t really eat any solid foods barely any veggies no boca burgers meats really besides ground turkey and even that gives me difficulty sometimes. I keep trying new things I eat slow small amounts but honestly I can barely eat anything. I’ve tried chicken, fish, steak and it all seems like it’s getting stuck at the bottom of my throat. I’m barely able to get any protein in because every time I eat I feel sick. I try protein bars and a bunch of different things I was supposed to be eating months ago and still have difficulties. The most I’m comfortable with is mashed potatoes and soups but I’m getting sick of that. I have tried a lot, and nothing really goes down and sits well with me. Do you think something is wrong?

Hello all. I have been browsing the forum for a while and been building up the courage to write what’s been going on to see if this is normal. Got a vertical sleeve 9/25. Today according to my doctor I would be on soft. The first few weeks of liquid weren’t bad but I was over pushing a few things nothing crazy. Long story short I have been trying different things like corned beef, tuna, refried beans, chicken lemon rice soup and I can’t eat anything. Everyday I feel sick every meal I feel like **** excuse my language I can’t get throughout the day without a nap. I started taking vitamins this bariatric ones but they taste nasty but they help sometimes but not with my mood I’m honestly getting depressed. I barely eat because everything feels like it’s getting stuck in my throat or upsets my stomach. They want me having 80 grams of protein a day I can’t even manage 10... I can’t even eat a whole string cheese without feeling like I’m going to vomit. This is getting harder as it goes on for me and it’s making me regret everything. My weight pre op was 340 I got down to 325 before surgery and an 293 now but it’s because I literally barely eat bc I’m afraid too. I can’t drink water fast so I barely drink water bc I have to take small sips or I choke on it. I almost die every night in the middle of the night when I wake up thirsty and forget to drink slow. Is this normal? I call my doctor and they blame it on me. I started smoking again last week but have felt this way prior. I had some internal bleeding in my abdominal tissue but it cleared up. The last 2 weeks have been the worse. Cereal went down ok but even eggs give me trouble and even when I do eat it’s literally 1-5 bites max and I’m done.

That is what is listed in his weight loss bible. I have confirmed it with them but that’s what he tells the 5 patients he does a week to do.
