3 months out hard to eat ANYTHING

[NewKaren 5]

Is anybody having this problem? Even a 10 oz. Protein Shake has to be done in 2 sittings. I sip slowly and eat very slow but I'm at the point where I'm getting a little lightheaded here and there. Sometimes after I eat I also get what feels like the gas pain I had after surgery in my left side. I go back to doc for 3 month check up tomorrow but was just curious...

I'm 9 weeks out and have this issue. It takes me around 2.5-3 hours to drink a Protein Shake. I feel fine unless I exercise; I begin to light headed then and it takes me a few days after to recuperate. I'm very happy with my weight loss thus far though!

Also, I'm not sure about the gas pain. It doesn't sound right, I would definitely mention it tomorrow!

I will, thanks Stephh!

10 oz is a lot! That's more than a cup. I'm pretty sure our stomachs can only handle about a half cup of food at this point. Maybe a cup of liquid, but 10 oz is definitely a lot.

I have my Protein shakes in half servings. I'm only 7 weeks out, but I can't imagine having a whole one in a sitting.

I also have to be very careful about my food or I get horrible chest pain and sliming. I don't think it's super unusual? But if it's bothering you, definitely mention it to your doctor.
