My new not so new stomach



Recommended Posts

People often ask me what's it like post op. I'm almost 4 months out. My explanation. Have you ever been around a baby when it's being fed? Yep that's me. They eat one bite yay, then the second. If my tummy decided it didn't like the first, even if it did 100x before. You guessed it out it comes. So the story of my new life. Finally able to eat eggs and sausage for a few weeks. The inside of a sausage burrito from McD's. This morning "roo" my pouch says nope I no longer like that. After working a 10 hour shift at one client on my way to a 5 hour client now I just want to go home and hug my specially devoted trash can. Ugg.

So I regret my decision, not one bit, but some "roo" cooperation would be nice

Sorry to hear that you are not having an easy time. Luckily I haven't had anything that disagrees with the ole pouch. I haven't been sick in a few weeks (thank goodness). I hope it passes soon for you.

hang in there it will get better. I am 13 years out and there is very little I can not eat. sometimes I wish for the old days when my eating was more limited but I have never regrated it for a moment.

I'm only a month out. it isn't so much what I eat, but how much. I am learning. There is no last bite. If my stomach says "I'm good". Stop. If I don't I'm miserable. I hate the nausea.

TxJess I'm trying to learn but not getting it. I dump often. I'm trying to slow, chew, stop. Teaching old dog new tricks is hard. I hate the nausea so I will figure it out. I have a very touchy pouch. Pork, chicken, eggs are off limits at 8 weeks postop.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
