Issues Eating Certain foods?

[natasha88 1]

I just have a question...I am in the process of prepaeing for the surgery.

Are people having problems not being able to eat certain foods? I had the VBG in the past and could not eat healty foods like fruits and vegetables. The pouch couldnt process more than a bite or 2. HAs anyone run into this problem with the sleeve?

Thank you!

I am 4 months out from surgery & I can pretty much eat any fruit or vegetable at this point.

I had to integrate things in over time though. The new digestive system definitely takes time to acclimate to new foods. I have had foods that didn't agree in the first month or two. Then, I slowly integrated them in a month or 2 later. So far, so good.

I'm 8 months out and have problems with dense meats but not with fruits and vegetables. I only eat those after I have the Protein in, or afterwards. fruit works well in smoothies now and Protein with milk.
