Stomach discomfort on pureed food stage



Recommended Posts

I'm in week two after gastric bypass and on pureed foods. I am measuring all of my intake but every time I eat anything I get a dull ache and discomfort in my stomach. I have eaten so slowly but maybe not slowly enough? I haven't had any nausea or vomiting...just stomach pain/discomfort. Any tips on what I'm doing wrong? Oh and the Constipation is totally a thing. I'm on Miralax powder every day and Colace and I'm on day three without going. Ugh.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have had that "stuck" feeling in my stomach. When that happens, dont try to wash it down with Water. That just makes it worse. Move around. That will help. My doctor had me on liquids for 4 weeks post-op. I am at 6.5 weeks now and still cant get anything more than one scrambled egg, tiny pieces of grill chicken or maybe some green Beans down. I am surviving mostly on shakes. The doctor says everyone is different. Oh and yes....I am on benefiber and Probiotics daily for the Constipation. horrible.

      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...

        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.
