Mam, I have been reading your post for a while and also suffer with strictures. Did they tell you back to liquids after scoping? Then puréed...then soft foods...etc? I do alot of soup...egg drop, hot and sour soup...and fage greek yogurt...pretty much daily. Can do seafood, no left overs of anything...(they are too dry and get stuck) no pills...no real carbs, ie potatoes bread or rice. This time has been mostly successful, they dilated me to 15mm. Protein Shakes as needed...

They only said wait 24 hours before eating again. No liquid or soft food.

I thought you had a stricture, so in that case the things that you vomited previously should not cause it this time (or at the least might not) because what I heard from my friend with the same issue, is that everything made him throw up. He was also told to go back to liquids and move up through the stages (much more quickly though then after surgery) to reintroduce foods to his pouch. Perhaps you might try that and do a stage for a couple days then move up a stage. liquid, pureed, etc... But soon you should be able to tolrerate a lot more food than when you were dealing with the stircture. Also my friend had to have the stretch done 3 times before he was back to normal and could eat without vomiting.

Best of luck!! It will all go up from here, right?

It looks like now I'm able to eat anything & everything except chicken Lolz.. Damn you chicken!!! I try spagetti but didn't like the taste didn't eat. I had a slice if pizza from papa John since I was really hungry & we went to the beach family time. Omg! That pizza taste so good. It had double extra cheese. Wasn't greasy or oily. I had a Celeste 1/2 today for lunch. Thus won't be an everyday thing. So far I'm doing really good. Had grill cheese 1/2 yesterday. Less then 1/4 boars head ham. I'm beginning to love it now surgery. I'm going to be careful with everything though since I'm still new not 3 months yet.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
