Are you chewing 25-30 times before you swallow? what have you tried? I suggest you go with fish and soft veggies, eat your Protein first, but CHEW, CHEW, CHEW and allow some time before each bite.

I hav the same problem,& still do at times, but if you eat small portion it helps,I used a baby fork & spoon, so I couldn't take big bites. Make sure you eat slowly too, Try the Special K Protein Drink, it's good & filling it has 10grams Protein & 16 sugars so there's no problem with dumping. Also try to eat around the same time &don't drink anything while you eat ,you should wait at least 30 minutes. I hope some of this helps , I'm 5no. Post op lost 100lbs, & I'm still trying to get this eating thing down.( no pun intended)Be well, Peace,Mary

I have tried a couple of thinks only thing that stay fown is the toping of the pizza so far

I've been on soft foods for five days now. I like bean free turkey chili - 11gr Protein in 1/2 cup. Tilapia is delish. Scrambled eggs. Grilled burger (chopped in food processor and moistened with beef gravy). Meatball, mashed with sauce and Parmesan cheese. String cheese - 7gr protein. So far this is all I've tried. I haven't had trouble with any of it. Chew well, small bites, eat slowly.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
