I m 3wks out and on soft/mushy foods. I m discouraged because 1) I get choked up 2) heart burn is a killer. Is this normal to feel this way? I swear sometimes i wish i would have jst not gotten this procedure done. I jst want to be able to drink normal and eat a lil without getting choked..uggh

Hello all i am 3 wks Post op. I have lost 36 pounds so far. I m jst a little annoyed because i feel my normalcy has been stripped away due to surgery I loved food before..hence the reason i was 346 Pre surgery. But i feel like i m not allowed to love food anylonger n it frustrates me. You dont realize the little things you take for granted before surgery like gulping cold water when thirsty...ughh i have to NOW sip. I dont want to cook in the kitchen anymore n experiment with receipes because i cant eat n enjoy it. Did anyone else have these feelings in the beginning?? Sometimes i ask myself...Why did i do this?! Please help with this struggle

Thank you all for your responses. My thing is i would be fine...if i could swallow the food w/o being choked or even having to eat so slow my food gets cold. Not that i miss "over eating". Again, Thank yall for the feedback

It will get better. But try more protein. Protein helps boost energy. I was going thru the same thing. I m 3wks post op. Good luck
