Eating Seems To Make Gas Move Around And Hurt

[Angelmom 30]

I'm 7 days out, and every time I put something in my stomach, I get gas moving around, and it makes it tough to take another bite. I think there is still gas from the surgery in there. I am moving around often enough that lack of walking is not the issue.

Anyone else experience anything similar? I sure hope it isn't the liquid diet foods causing me gas--or if it is, that it's temporary and gets better.

Walking and exercise is best thing , your body has to absorb the gas they fill your gut up with, it can take several weeks to work its way out!

That's good to know...I wondered how long the gas sticks around. I thought less than a week, but at least I feel assured it's gas and not some kind of intolerance forming. It's strange how I feel the presence of the gas when I eat.

What are you eating at 7days? If I may ask ?

GNC total lean vanilla, strawberry. Had Bariatric Advantage vegetable Soup sample, today. Yoplai Greek low sugar yogurt, Propel Zero Water, regular water, a couple calcium chews, Carnation s-f chocolate pkt with organic skim. That's about it. There are a bunch of other things on the stage 2 diet, but these are the basics for me...and I have to work at getting them in. I reached about 50 Proteins, today...and tomorrow, I hope to reach 60. Getting the Protein is very important to me...i just wish I had something with a lot more protein in it in one or two spoonsful...then i wouldn't have to worry about eating at all.

Sorry had to ask ,making sure you weren't one of those people puttin a bigmac in the blender and Calling it liquids , haha . My experience with food was similar only to find out it was the chewable multi Vitamin at the root of most of my discomfort, I kinda remember some people eating MUD =protein powder , your choice of nut butter and enough milk to make it like cake batter, obviously less volume& dense Protein, I never tried it ,I didn't make

My way here until I was a couple months out. Hope that helps. Good luck
