Hi bequi: I've lost 38 pounds in two months post-op. I got into trouble with being stubborn at trying to eat regular foods. I did some serious reading in my textbook "Emotional First Aid," which brought me back on track from my eating frenzy. Now that I've reached 60+ days post-op, I'm allowed Stage 5: 4 oz. Regular Diet. I had trouble eating previously because I was trying to eat regular foods. My stomach pouch won't tolerate fried foods (like bacon or chicken), rice, beef stroganoff, or baked chicken breast (too dry). I will take it slowly and see what works best for my digestive system. Also I am learning what it feels like when my pouch is becoming full, so I can avoid overload which causes discomfort and dumping.

The best thing is to take it slowly. I struggle with sipping my Water. I tend to forget and gulp it! Not a nice feeling! Fish (mainly Salmon) has become my new best friend.
