7 Days Out...and I'm surprised...

[gkwalthew 0]

Hello all, I've been stalking these forums for awhile but I really need some insight on my situation.

I had RNY gastric bypass 1 week ago and everything is not as I expected...

I had/have very little pain, surgeon said everything went perfect.

I can drink almost normally, literally chug Water almost with just the slightest pressure...

Everything I've eaten has gone down perfectly...not even a hint of trouble...

I have very little gas and I pooped easily/normally like on day 4.

And I feel like my hunger is still present but I do get full faster, but I thought I'd barely be able to take 3 bites and that isn't the case at all.

Soooooo I'm concerned. Shouldn't I be feeling more different?? I am losing weight which is good but I guess I thought Id wake up to a much more drastic healing process? I'm worried the surgeon didn't make the pouch small enough?? I read so many horror stories in preparation for this and now I'm just confused...

Any one with a similar experience??

I know only from reading on here, no personal knowledge yet. Most responder say liquids are easy, slip,right on through but when you get to purees and softs you'll truly feel the restriction and tightness of your newly redesigned innards. Keep on slow and steady with the liquids and the pureed etc will come. When that happens,let us know how you're getting along. You'll be a veteran to all the newbies and pre surgs. Cool --isn't it?

I'm almost 2 months out and not alot of restriction either. The only time I know when I've eaten too much is after I've eaten too much and the pains come. So you learn how much you can eat and then stop prior to becoming too full. I honestly felt the same way you feel, i thought after surgery I wouldn't be able to eat and initially for about a week I couldn't however seems like I can eat more and more as time goes on.

I’m a little less than a week out and feel lousy Protein Shakes which I tolerated before surgery now make me throw up. I feel terrible weak and even having a difficult time sleeping. Not a single pound lost in a while. Hw 238 cow 218 he 135
