Congratulations!!! Take your time and listen to your body..

Hey. My stomach was doing the same thing. So I set a timer for every 2hours to eat something. It’s working so far. I haven’t had a problem with low energy. But when I did I use to take B12. You should ask your doctor

Thank you. Yes, I was just told if I’m 100% sure I’ve ate enough more than likely my body is just thirsty. Another thing I was told to monitor while eating is if I start to belch, hiccup, or nose starts run while eating that’s a sign that you’re getting full. I just said for this week I’m going to try setting my alarm for every two hours to do one of the following: eat, drink, snack, and walk. This is six weeks post ops and the first time I’ve ever felt this bad

It made me wonder was I not eating enough. But I know I am. I’ve reached out to a few people to ask why does or is this happening. I’ll share whatever information I receive

I understand the feeling. I’m drinking the protein and water. And it’s still really loud, but I’m not hungry. It’s a little embarrassing. Need to find out how to stop it.

@ Drewski I hope everything goes well.

I have. None of stays down. I have found if I drink less than half it stays but I do get nauseous. And that feeling I just don’t like.

6 wks since surgery. I am not taking down proteins good at all. Prior to surgery I was able to do protein and water perfectly fine. Since surgery the protein makes me sick to my stomach. i’ve been doing the refried beans and water and pomegranate or cranberry juice 50-50. I went for my six week follow up yesterday and they said that I should be eating solid foods. Now I still been doing purée. Some fish like cod or whiting. But nothing that really consist of a lot of chewing. it’s a big adjustment. I thought it would be just as easy as the adjustment and change that’s been made over the last eight months but it’s not. Good luck to you.

Same here. Before this drinking wasn’t even a thought. I was drinking almost a gallon of water and drinking protein 3 times a day was not a problem. Now I can barely get it down. I have been doing the half and half of water with cranberry or pomegranate juice. I’m also eating a lot of refried beans and thank goodness for the sugar free popsicles.

It’s all an adjustment. Stay encourage and you’ll get by. Just slow down and try to get on a comfortable schedule. I’m 5wks post op and I don’t swallow a pill. stick to the chewable and try to patches.
