I had the same problem-was so miserable all the time! I started adding 1tablespoon of chia seeds to my food twice a day and it works! I’m now regular! It’s so easy! I still take my probiotic and a stool softens daily just in case. Definitely give it a try! Good luck!

16 weeks postop and hate food
sleevedandhappy posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I’m looking for someone who is further out than I am who can tell me how to enjoy food again. At each sitting I can only get less than 2 ounces down and that’s only protein. Once I eat the protein there’s no room for anything else. I haven’t eaten any veggies yet because I’m only getting between 20-30 g of protein in per day. Water is nauseating to me but I push hard to get it in but again, I’m nowhere near the 64 ounces that is required. Forget protein shakes! Since surgery I cannot tolerate them at all! I’m just wondering if this will get better with more time? -
Welcome! I’m a newbie today too!

Mrs. Peachy congratulations! Even with the issues I’m having I have no regrets! I’m down 42 lbs with 21 more to my final goal. -

Any water I drink goes down rough, but adding lemon does help. I switched to just bottled water. I’m bad about drinking when I eat so maybe I should make that switch. It’s so hard not to!! -

Thank you! That gives me a lot of encouragement. My vitamin levels are good and I do take them faithfully every day. It’s great to hear from someone who is past my point and can relate to my issues. Thank you for your input!!!
