3 Month Post-Op



Recommended Posts

I am down 71 Lbs since my surgery on January 27th. Unfortunately, I am still not able to really tolerate or eat solids without experiencing pain which has limited altogether what I eat or eat at all.

My doctor suggested I meet with the nutritionist, who simply suggested "smaller portions". Even though portions had never really been the issue.

So now I have to have an EGD done to make sure everything looks okay. They said it could be built up scar tissue that is irritating my stomach.

I have been told that it can take longer for some to heal than others but my doctor said after 3 months, I should be able to handle some sort of solid Protein by now.

Anyone else experienced this? Fingers-crossed I get some answers and it's nothing major.

what surgery did you get? If you can, update your profile with your information on your surgery, weight ect... It helps a ton. You can do that by editing your profile and under the surgery section.

I had the Gastric Sleeve procedure done, along with a Hiatal Hernia repair.

I've also attempted to update that information (both via the app and desktop platforms) but it won't let me.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
