A week and a 1/2 post op am i eating too fast



Recommended Posts

Hello, i need to know if im eating too fast and if that plays a role in feeling bubbly bloated all day. Im so sad rt now and cant stop crying. Ive been feeling like crap for the past 3 days. I just want my stomach to feel as good as it did 1 week post op. Idk if its the Vitamins, dairl products, protien shakes, cream Soups, or eati.g too fast but im just really sad and had multiple crying spells today. I just want to feel better. Its not pain just continuous uncomfortable bubbly bloating.

Hi, I'm 14 days post of and I guggle and bubble all day. I know it mainly happnes when I'm getting full. I'm on full liquids now and will start pureed tomorrow. The feeling is uncomfortable and annoying, but I've accepted it as part of the process. I'm so sorry you are feeling sad. Is something else going on ? If the food is giving you problems right now, why not just stick with broth and warm tea for awhile? Just give it a chance and go with the recovery process. I had a horrible first 10days. I must say at 14 days out today, I feel great. Almost like the surgery never happened. Hang in there, it will get better.

Thanks for the advice! Im a bit of a worry wart so to say my first 7 days post op was almost perfect and now experiencing this is a hard pill to swallow. I worry that im not getting enough protien since i cant handle the protien shakes. I did order some unlavored powder but its not here yet. Also yesterday there was a moment where i got really over heated and light headed and nauseous at the same time and i was sitting in one spot. I was so hot that i left puddles of sweat where my arms were on the table. My cousin had to fan me and i had to focus on breathing. Eventually it passed but i never experienced anything like that before so i believe it was a combo of things that had me questioning everything about my health and the surgery. Its nice to know that other people have the bubblies too lol.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
