THANK YOU EVERYONE for the links!! They were really helpful!!

Ughhhh this is so frustrating its been over 2 weeks!! Problem is I know if I'm getting enough protein, I don't like Greek yogurt, I'm so over my protein shakes!! Sunday I probably don't even have 500 calories... This wed. Ill be able to have ground meats, very soft veggies...any other suggestions?? Ill be at the last stage before we're on our own... Please help

Geez should I be worried?? All I see are post about people getting theirs taken out after surgery I'm scared :/

Does anyone document their journey on YouTube? If so please let me know thanks

Thanks everyone

I guess I'm asking about anything...from hamburgers to tacos from fries to pie....anything?? An what does dumping have to do with all over it?? I mean I know I won't be able to eat the amount of those things I used to eat but???? Can someone pls explain to me?? Thanks

2mrw ill go back to crushing it

CarrieP how far out post-op r u??

Wow really???

Thanks Lander my meds are all crushable I've been doing it since I was in the hospital so I know that's ok.

I'm 15 days today post-op an I couldn't stomach my Zoloft (the generic) any long crushed up...so I split it in 3's an took it with apple sauce....I swear when I saw my dr last wed. He told me one more week...it's a small pill to begin with maybe 1/2 an inch...so far so good I took it almost a half hour ago no pain

I promise u I'm 15 days post-op an I've felt like this for the last week...everyone continues to reassure me it will pass an we just have to know that it will. Stay strong it'll pass

My dr said after 2 week ur stomach is almost completely healed an that there is no chance for a leak. Ill feel better next week (which will be 3 weeks for me) an my surgeon teaches dr ALL over the world...I also had my surgery thru in incision in my belly bottom which a lot of people don't have...guess it jus depends

Thank u everyone I'm finally starting to not feel like an alien it's like no one gets it...

Thanks everyone i sure hope so

Thanks ladies hopefully it'll just get better with time
