Starting soft/pureed food, gas pain, and weight loss

[Cota129 0]

As of yesterday, I can begin soft/pureed food. I had a bit of cottage cheese yesterday, and 2 oz. of tuna today. Within an hour or so of eating, I start getting terrible gas pains. Is this normal? I've been on liquid for 4 weeks and these 2 things are my first foods. Also, and I know this is not what I should be worried about since it's only a week since surgery, my weight has completely stalled. I read about people that have lost 20-30 lb in the first 2 weeks after surgery and that kind of frustrates me. I lost 19 lb. before surgery and have stayed the same since surgery. Am I being too impatient? (I know the answer is yes, but it helps to have others kick me in the butt and tell me to cool my jets!):biggrin1:

I have come realize that everyone is different. I am post op 9 days and have lost 1lb a day but I have alot of weight to lose as well. Depends on what you have to lose and you may still have alot of gas left in you. Not sure but I know that it is to early to be worrying about it.

So consider this the kick in !@@# you need.

Good Luck.
