I'm two weeks out from surgery and today I have a funny feeling in my pouch. I ate my normal Breakfast (1 oz scrambled egg and 1oz diced ham). Well here it is about 2 hours later and it feels like I have a rock in my stomach. I don't know what it is but it's uncomfortable and making me nauseous.

I have no idea what to do. I haven't had any problems until this. Souls I call my surgeons office?

Two weeks out seems soon to be eating that type of food since you are still in the healing phase. But I know all doctors have their own eating plans. It maybe a normal new feeling of being too full but I would suggest anytime you have a question or concern talk to your team they would rather here from you. It sounds like you are doing really well.

I would give them a call to be safe.

Just like Joy59 mentioned, 2 weeks out was way too early for my program to be eating that type of foods, but then we all have different programs.

This was the first time this has happened. I was scared. One of the wonderful women from my support group talked new through it. Told me to relax, walk and sip Water. It helped so much.

It also helped when she told me that what you tolerated yesterday isn't what you may tolerate today. Makes me rethink everything in my approved list that I've been eating. Nervous about eating now lol

Shirley you might want to hop onto the LapBand boards. The folks who had your procedure may offer you better insight than those who had bypass. Your food list, and reactions may be very different from ours.

Dang, my profile still says band. I need to change that. I had my RNY on the 26th of August.

I went through the same thing. eggs were one of the first things I tried when I went on soft foods. The 1st 2 mornings were fine, but then every time I ate a scrambled egg, I got that rock in my stomach feeling and was nauseaus. Right now I have an egg aversion. However, I have been able to eat an over easy egg with no problem.

I'm 8 weeks post op, and don't really want eggs anymore. Just the thought of them is yucky right now. I used to eat them all the time, so it's a weird feeling. Several other foods gave me that same feeling, but it's gotten better each week.

      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.
