kcaaunt 6 Posted November 27, 2012 I get that pressure sensation too. It is really strange. At first I thought it was gas but it happens to me whenever I eat OR drink too fast. I was always a fast eater and a gulper so this is really training me to be very conscious of what goes in my mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrsdw206 40 Posted November 29, 2012 Down 13.8 since surgery. I'm excited but the loss still seems super slow for me. Maybe I'll start measuring inches....I'm wearing jeans today that I wasn't able to fit before surgery.....looking forward to seeing the numbers on the scale go down, down, and down!!! 1 mahow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as your losing that is all that matters. Every body is different with different health issues and situations. It is frustrating when we compare ourselves to others and they have lost 25+ lbs. The important thing is that we recover from surgery, get healthy and continue weight loss. So lets keep on rocking...best to you. 1 Mrsdw206 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missy-la 7 Posted November 30, 2012 I get that pressure sensation too. It is really strange. At first I thought it was gas but it happens to me whenever I eat OR drink too fast. I was always a fast eater and a gulper so this is really training me to be very conscious of what goes in my mouth. I started puréed a couple days ago, I get that funny pressure sensation, too. I've learned it's my sign to slow down or stop!! 1 mahow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewellkeptwoman 15 Posted November 30, 2012 Lost 11! I can start mushies today. I went to the commissary and got the goods. Puréed some chicken and avocado with hummus on the side. Was only able to eat 3 tsp and got full. So satisfying! It's good to have meat again! I'm in a good mood now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TaraInDC 55 Posted December 4, 2012 Does anyone experience unexplained nausea???? Mostly in the mornings...it's not horrible but I really don't like the feeling... I definitely have morning nausea as well, in fact, yesterday I had an early morning flight from Florida to Philadelphia and got sick on the plane - was feeling very nauseous before I even boarded and then felt fine the rest of the day after. I haven't really been eating anything for Breakfast so I wasn't sure if that was it - tomorrow I get to start soft foods and plan on doing eggs in the am - hoping that will help.

ozeedonkee 145 Posted December 4, 2012 First thing I do on waking is have a glass of Water, then 30 minutes later have breakfast. If I don't do this I feel awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
