  1. It's the same for everything food = ill.
  2. I everyone! I really need your help. I have felt fantastic pretty much from day 1 since my surgery 3 weeks ago. Up until now I'm getting a bit depressed and am finding it hard to cope. I have advanced so quickly in my progress that I pretty much came out of hospital eating regular foods. It hurt if the peices were too big bit I chewed really well and in small amounts. It seems now I have gone a bit backwards. No matter how much I chew food seems to hurt going down and those shakes are far too sweet for me and make me fill I'll beyond belief! Food also makes me feel really nauseated to the point where I can't function, I feel weak and I need to lay down. Im seeing my surgeon tomorrow but I just want to know if there's anyone else out there who can relate to this and what they did to calm things down? I hate food at the moment!
  3. I have been getting quite a bit of back pain since my surgery (8 days ago) can anyone relate to this or might it just be a coincidence?

    When did you have yours done? I feel do great! I was do mentally ready for this and it was my first time ever having a general anaesthetic! I held myself really well, which I thought made a lot of difference. I guess my body was just so prepared. I've been holding everything so well and I have hardly no pain anymore. Sometimes I'll eat something and it's a little too big do it hurts going down, but that's it! I can't wait for my 2 week check up do I can hug my surgeon! Haha

    I just joined this forum. I had my sleeve done on the 27th of March (5 days ago), I am feeling amazing! I've lost 5.9 kilos, everything is staying down, I don't have any pain anymore, and no nausea! I feel like this is too good to be true. I am eating proper foods too (not liquified). I chew the crap out of it and tiny bites as well, but I wonder if this is really ba or not? I know the guidelines say at this stage I should only be eating liquified or puréed food, but I fel so good that I just went for it and it stayed down and I was much more satisfied. Can someone tell me if I'm doing something really bad?
