I just had my first food stuck in the esophagus and the only way to get it unstuck was to puke it out.... Omg toast does not want to enter my body yet and I won't let it for a long while now lol... Anyone else have this happen? If so what kind of food did it?

Transitioning to hard foods can be difficult. meats are especially difficult for me. So I relied on softer foods such as chili and Soups.

I had that problem with brisket and have shied away from it ever since. I also have trouble with chicken breast. No throwing up, but intense pain in my chest! Chicken thigh meat is a little easier, and even then I have to have some sort of sauce to help it go down.

@@rolosmom7, I eat a lot of tuna, and it is high in Protein, but I definitely won't eat it without a LOT of mayo! If you are worried about fat, use lite mayo. I need sauces/condiments to get most protein down.

It had mayo ???? I think I'm just going to delay on the mushies until Saturday or Sunday. I'll definitely keep the sauce in mind. I want to try the ricotta bake, maybe it will go down easier with extra sauce.

Anything I cook I eat for a few days then never want to see it again.... But I have to have sauce like ranch or mayo for it to go down good I'm not sure why that is either.

My cousin had the surgery 6 months before me, and she warned me that dry foods do not go down well. Everything has to be super moist or loaded with sauce so it goes down smooth.

      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.
