  13. Omg!!! This is the hardest thing I think I've ever done!!!! I hate to sound weak but this post surgery diet is giving me a run for my money!!! I'm not sure if maybe I'm the only one but when I swallow my food I feel it going down and it kinda hurts! Does that get better? And something I feel the mash potatoes get stuck in my esophagus and I feel that I am about to choke!!! I'm very nervous still about this BC it doesn't look like I can ever enjoy another meal in my life!!! Pls tell me this gets a little better!!! I'm praying it does!!

    Gas pain? Not really having that but when I swallow anything all I do is burp!!!! Very annoying!! I kno it'll eventually get better or at least I'm hoping!!! And when I swallow I can feel the food when it makes it to my smaller new tummy. Kinda uncomfortable!!! Does that go away?
