What irritates your sleeve?

[Jazmundo 58]

I'm on soft solids now. I've noticed dairy is just not digesting well. Anyone else? What irritates your sleeve.... I can't digest yogurt or cheese. I found a small slice of turkey goes down ok. I'm trying egg salad today. Just boiled egg with light mayo.. Hoping that goes down ok. Trying a small teaspoon at a time ... One step forward and one step back seems like..

Still haven't tried "food" yet but I'm having different Soups. Have you tried them? Try a vegetable or Lentl Soup. Maybe those will do better with your sleeve

I have noticed that whenever I try something new- I can only take a couple of spoonfuls the first time and the next time I eat it I'm able to digest a lot more

I haven't tried Soups yet. What kind do you eat? How much? How many times a day?

[LSF 264]

I can eat about a 1/2 can. I've had New England Clam Chowder and Vegetable Soup. I bought a Seafood Bisque but haven't tried it yet. I thought the clam chowder went down better than the vegetable. I'll try to buy Progresso Light Soups . I also bought Lentl but haven't tried it yet

Hi i also couldnt tolerate dairy in the beginning, however a few months out and i can have it in very very small doses. I think with time it will get better, Try scrambled eggs, at this stage you are at they should go down quite well. Someone posted in the food forums about Heston Blumenthal's scrambled eggs, check you tube for the video.

I'm over 3 months post op and my sleeve still doesn't like salads, untoasted bread, eggs, tuna. I'm terrified to even try Pasta or rice since I hear those are the hardest to handle. I made tuna salad last night and had to stop eating after 3 spoonfuls. Made scrambled eggs for Breakfast and could only eat a few bites before my stomach said "no more". So I'm hooked on Pure Protein Meal Replacement bars (20 grams Protein in 200 calories). My sleeve never gives me grief about Protein Bars.

Oh......and forget fruit - especially if it has any type of skin. Oranges, apples, grapes, strawberries.....my sleeve just doesn't like them.

[LSF 264]

I was under the impression that re: eggs & tuna, that's the normal amount for how much you can eat the first year

[Elode 8,093]

Any meat that's not super soft or moist.

Have you tried cutting up strawberries and making them in Jello? That's what I had to do with my band and dim going to try it with the sleeve. Not for another month or so

My sleeve hates bread and popcorn. I tried a bite of each at different times and they both made my stomach hurt so bad! I haven't tried Pasta or rice yet, and don't plan to for a very long time, if ever. everything else has been fine though.

I WISH my sleeve was sensitive. Lol. I must have rock gut. I have had no problems with anything. And I am six months post op.
