Amanda R 56 Posted September 30, 2013 Man' date=' I wish I got full that fast. But I did have my first dumping syndrome(I guess that's what it was?). I had two bites of mashed broccoli and puked it right back up. I was okay after that though. Strange that I can eat 3 oz of chicken but not a few bites of broccoli HW(9/3/13)- 284, DOS(9/11/13)-270, CW-257(9/25/13), GW-155(by 9/21/14...my 26th birthday!)[/quote'] Maybe it was too stringy?

stitchergirl88 24 Posted September 30, 2013 Broccoli is a gassy vegetable. I tried to eat cauliflower and luckily I ate one bite only bc it hurt and I kept burping thinking I was gonna puke. Thats funny you ate an egg, I tried to yesterday too. I ate 75% then stopped from fear of getting too full. I haven't puked yet but I am very careful. Even being careful I have had full pains a handful of times and it has me scared. Yesterday I ate 1/2 of one ravioli and it hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShineBright724 70 Posted September 30, 2013 Amanda, No I didn't purée the canned chicken. My NUT said that because it's moist it should go down fine. I also asked her if I could do like a chicken salad and she said that was fine as long as I used fat free mayo which I did. By the way I was constipated so I went and got Dulcolax like my manual instructed me to. Took one and nothing. Then 7 hours later I took two more and today I'm just living in the bathroom. Oh did I mention it's my first day back at work. Holy shit. ????. 1 Lynne reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stitchergirl88 24 Posted September 30, 2013 Oh man! That sucks. Bowel drugs take about half a day to work. But not if severely constipated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sageandcoyesmommy 28 Posted September 30, 2013 I'm 19 days out from surgery and I've gained 3 lbs in the past 5 days. I'm seriously discouraged I've read a lot about stalls, but actual weight gain ugh. This blows HW(9/3/13)- 284, DOS(9/11/13)-270, CW-257(9/25/13), GW-155(by 9/21/14...my 26th birthday!)

stitchergirl88 24 Posted September 30, 2013 Maybe you are getting more Fluid in? Water weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sageandcoyesmommy 28 Posted September 30, 2013 I've been taking in 60-90 oz of Water every day since surgery. And It's not that time of the month either. This is the weight I was stuck at for 3 years prior to surgery so I'm praying that I don't stay stuck HW(9/3/13)- 284, DOS(9/11/13)-270, CW-257(9/25/13), GW-155(by 9/21/14...my 26th birthday!)

I go for my first check-up on Thursday, Oct 3rd and I am going to ask the doctor what gives.?!?!!!!! Sorta irritating, since I thought I would only be able to have 1-2 bites, but that isn't the case. 1 sageandcoyesmommy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stitchergirl88 24 Posted October 1, 2013 And my back still hurts. I am not sure what that is all about. I am gonna ask the doctor though. I had only like 2 days of back pain that started a week after my surgery. It went away but if I hick up or sneeze it hurts my back like crazy. I called the office during the two days of continuous back pain and their answer was gas pain from the co2. Simply as she put "I can't do anything for you, just tell you what it is."
