I am 9 weeks out and I still have the discomfort and vomiting.I do the chewing to nothing but it doesn't help. Its quite disheartening til I step on the scales. I'm hoping it will get better in time x

I'm 7weeks post op and still have problems eatting. Can't wait til I'm 'normal' again.

I do take lansoprozole, which is the same kind of medication, but this stops the acid but not the sickness that I feel. I will get some probiotics and see if that helps. I'm just sick of the nausea and. I'm worried my 3yr old will think that its normal to be sick after food. She asks me everytime I eat if I'm okay and do I need to be sick. I really need to get this sorted out. Thank you so much for your advice. :-) x

I had mine on 23 Jan but I actually dread eatting, it always feels uncomfortable and I always feel nauseous after I've eaten. I take my time and I chew but I always feel bad, I think I've had maybe 3 times since surgery where I haven't felt sick and that's all :-( please help give me some sound advice x

I hope I have anyway, if I start to stall again I may just cry lol it was horrid to stall but I read lots of feedback on here and the main advice was drink...drink..drink. So I bought my water bottle and carry it everywhere, sipping as I go :-)

I am just starting week 6, and I was told by my dietician to eat with a teaspoon to make sure your not putting too much in your mouth so for someone to say they are only eating 6 teaspoons of food makes perfect sense to me. I am the same, if I eat its only 4-6 teaspoons but I try and ensure I have three meals a day so it adds up to extra. I do still get disappointed that I can't finish a meal even though its a tiny portion, if I'm enjoying the food but my tummy says no way I just stop. I've learnt not to push it as if I continue I get very sick. I do carry a water bottle with me everywhere or I forget to drink, this got me pass my stall and is a blessed relief when I'm feeling very dry, I constantly take sips x

I'm glad after many different names for one onion we have now covered them all I hope I still haven't made these yet, I guess I will try them today. :-)

Hi, I've only just found this group. I was sleeved on the 23/1/13. I'm stuck at the moment and a little bit down, I'm on week 5. Last wk I only lost a pound and a half and this wk looks like its going to be the same. I've up'd my fluids, I was finally able to eat something yesterday without being sick which was great, just hoping this stops the tiny weight loss and kick starts the good weight losses.

Today I was able to eat mashed potato, mashed carrot, minced beef and gravy. Tiny portion eaten very slowly and its stayed down, I'm so happy :-) I dont feel sick at all. I was actually dreading eating my tea/dinner as I expected to be sick like everytime before. I have tried to up my fluids today as I know I'm dehydrated. I hope this all helps :-)

Looking on the internet it seems they may also be called Scallions. :-)

Shallots in the Uk are small onions, they are not as strong as the normal onion. I think that maybe you could use shallots if they were softened first. (the Uk version of shallots I mean) I hope all this helps :-)

Its also known as a salad onion, its white with green stem, thin and mainly used in salads. I hope that helps :-)
