I will be 8 mos post-op on the 30th, and around the 7mo mark I did take a sip here and there without problems. Last night I had a barcardi and coke with no problem. I also have had a beer with out any problems as well. This is not a everyday occurrence

I also became Lactose Intolerant. It was miserable until I finally figured it out! I am now almost 8 months out and this past week I had a yogurt parfait from Subway, cottage cheese and cheddar cheese without any problems. I heard that this could be temporary so that is why I tried these foods. I only try one dairy a day. Unjury Protein was the only thing my stomach could tolerate. I took a sip of a milk shake from In and Out and it did not take long before I knew that was just too much for my stomach! Hopefully yours will only be temporary! Good luck

Oh my so sorry for your mom. Be proud of your success and being there to help your mom! At least your mom is in the hospital and is in good hands. Sending you hugs and positive thoughts. Keep us posted on your mom.

Congratulations and keep up the good work!

I went through that as well. My doctor did a complete Vitamin blood test on me and my B12 was low, so I now go in once a month for shots and my doctor also recommended that I take B complex pills as well. Make sure you are staying hydrated as well, because that will also drain you if your not. Good luck!

I agree with everyone else "Bile". It happened to me several times, I was so used to gulping ice cold water! Took awhile but I can now gulp again, just not as big as before!

Every body is different. On your next visit ask your doctor what size of bougie he used. Count your blessing that you are able to eat. My first month was pure hell and I could hardly get anything in. Fast forward 8 months and I learned my body was going through a lot besides my surgery. I have Lupus and between that and the surgery they were both competing to get my attention! I could see how you could eat the asparagus and mashed potatoes with chicken because they are more of a slider food. You will be fine, just enjoy the journey

My stomach definitely makes noises. Not as much as before, but it did have plenty to say!

Try making them with more liquid. I also had the same problem for a long time. At Walmart they have a liquid whey Protein mix it with Water and freeze. Then eat ice chips all day long. This way you get some protein with liquid. The whole tube is I think 42 gr of protein, I would divide it into 3 servings, makes it easier to track protein in ice chips! Good luck

I went to a consignment shop at first because you will be dropping sizes very often, so don't go and buy expensive jeans. Also my shorts are sweatpants material because you can tie it tighter when needed! I went from a size 14-6 within 6 months. Good luck and enjoy shopping you will be surprised!

I too had problems with drinking Water after surgery. I also don't like the taste of "sugar free" so I either make ice tea or add lemons, fresh mint, cumbers or orange slices to my water. Water has to be ice cold in order to drink it plain but it still tastes "off". Good luck everyday does get better.

How can we blame them? We had the power to choose foods for ourselves. They market what people want. If we wanted to eat healthy, the produce isle has never left the grocery store.
Unless it is organic, we have NO idea what chemicals they used to grow the produce.

Congratulations, you look great!

I became lactose intolerant after surgery. I am now approaching 8 months post op on the 30th, last week I had some cheese with no problem. Everyday since I have tried to eat ONE diary product a day, had a yogurt, cheese stick, cream cheese and cottage cheese and things so far so good. So hopefully you problem will only be temporary

What your feeling is pretty normal. My doctor put me on a antidepressant to help with my hot flashes but it also helped my depression. I was on a emotional roller coaster for a couple of months. I agree with the others, when down go outside and take a walk. Everyday does get better!
-
I also have that problem. I thought I was crazy, so now I am glad to find out I am not! It is the weirdest feeling. Being lactose intolerant I do not do yogurt but if I could that would be my breakfast! I can not tolerate Protein Drinks in the morning as well. Hopefully this won't last too long!
Who else has lactose problems?

I became lactose intolerant after surgery. In the last month (10 mos post-op)I started having dairy with NO problems. Hang in there hopefully it will only be temporary. Good luck
