  1. It was amazing! It hit the spot
  2. I'm a week post-op, would I be ok with egg drop and wonton soup? I'm so sick of Gatorade and Crystal light, I need taste.
  3. Yeah I think it's because I ate too much of it because I had it the other day and it didn't bother me.
  4. I'm a week post-op and I'm on a PPI. I had two bites of it the other day too and nothing happened. It's not sugar free but I've been eating other things that have sugar in them and they haven't bothered me. I think I ate too much, but I didn't get a full feeling, I never do.
  5. So I just had a pudding cup, 3.25oz to be exact. I wasn't even to the garbage to throw it away yet when I got sweaty, my stomach started rumbling, and I had a little bit of reflux. What happened? Anyone else have this happen to them?
  6. Yesterday I felt amazing and today I'm very tired and have no energy. I just want to crawl into bed. Anyone ever experience this?
  7. I know me too because I love sleeping on my left side. It hurts too much!
  8. My surgeon told me to enjoy fast food if you only have it once in awhile. But if it's a regular thing that's different.
  9. I can't lay on my left side, it's very tender but it only bothers me when I lay on it. It's fine otherwise. Anyone else experience this?
  10. It's all I've had period. It's the only fluid I'm drinking besides my protein shots.
  11. Drink Gatorade. That's all I'm drinking because I know that I'm getting electrolytes and what I need.
  12. I take two of the Viactiv Calcium chews a day. Once at lunch time and another at dinner since you can't have more than 500mg at a time. They taste like candy and I like them a lot.
  13. I had it a couple of times yesterday but it makes sense, liquid in = liquid out. I felt fine though so I don't think it's a big deal. I got it when I drank the wrong thing maybe that's what it is. Take a look at everything you've had and see if something you drank could be the cause.
  14. I think our stomachs are very tender and swollen and that's why the first couple of weeks is the hardest. If liquids hurt I can only imagine what it'd be like to try anything with more of a solid consistency. No wonder we are on liquids for a good amount of time.
  15. Oh and I just had a 2oz popsicle and 6oz of Gatorade without any pain
  16. I'm now post-op day #6. Even though it's been a really tough 6 days I'm proud to announce that I've lost 21lbs and I'm only 98lbs from my goal weight. Thank you to every one on here for your support and advice. I'd be freaking out a lot more if it wasn't for you guys assuring me that everything I feel is normal
  17. Oh yes I know, last night when I swallowed too big a mouthful of sherbert it felt like someone was twisting a knife around my chest
  18. I'm experiencing the same thing especially when I drink.
  19. I've had nothing but Gatorade today. It's been about an hour and I'm still uncomfortable.
  20. So I've had my 32oz for the day and I knew I was done because I had a pain below my sternum. I figured a couple sips won't hurt because I was thirsty, so I take a few and now I'm experiencing a lot of discomfort. I'm bloated and my tummy hurts a little, I also have that in my throat that you get when you drink too much too fast quickly. Has this ever happened to someone or did I injure my sleeve?
  21. Thank you all for making me feel so much better
  22. Well I bought three packs and I'm tight on money so I'm sticking with them until they're gone.
