They might also put you on in addition sucralfate, no more coffee, minimal or no citrus, possibly,tomatos, peppermint and Spivey foods. Maybe no pork like spareribs. You might have to check,with a gastroenterologist, mine pit me on Dexilant, he called it the Ferrari of PPIs, Prilosec, Pepcid did zilch for me.Dexilant without insurance tuns $300-350 a month if I didn't have insurance.. And it hurts as bad as gall bladder pain.

Thanks, Frustr8, but mine doesn't hurt that bad. An ache, almost hot feeling, not sharp pain. I've never had gallbladder issues, but my husband did. I already don't eat any of the foods you mentioned. What is sucralfate?

Small portions, chew the food at least 30 times, take your time, and stop when your pouch feels full but not stuffed. Most importantly, follow your doctor's instructions to the letter. When is your surgery or have you had it already?

I had my surgery 5/9. I’m on stage 2 diet already because my surgeon does that for most of his sleeve patients the day after surgery. I started out with some Jello and yogurt and now am eating part skim ricotta. What I’m struggling with now is that I don’t feel hunger or fullness and I am worried about overeating.
