4 weeks out and already at a stall. Anyone else do this and what helped?

4 weeks out and already at a stall. Anyone else do this and what helped?

Had my first episode of not chewing enough and food getting stuck. I hate vomitting but oh it felt good to get it up

I will. Thanks

Im 3 1/2 weeks and cleared to eat now except bread and steak.

Had a caeser salad with egg yesterday and it still hasn't settled. I feel so uncomfortable and bloated

Is anyone else having trouble with a nasty taste in mouth, making it hard to tolerate any liquids?

I go back to work tomorrow and while I'm excited to get out of this recliner, I'm nervous about making it all day without getting tired and/or sick.

I have it too. Doctor told me that it will go away with time and it can be from medication or because of the stomach surgery. It sucks for now though.

Went for my first postop appointment today and found out that I'm coming along fine and can go to regular foods in one more week. Yes!!

Lexington

And I'm 2 weeks post op. Any suggestions on bypass friendly restaurants in Kentucky?

I just hope the feeling goes away soon because this is why I had the surgery...so I don't go in to a food coma everytime I eat

I just ate 2 oz of thin mashed potatoes and feeling stuffed and uncomfortable. Will it always be like this?

I ate a scrambled egg today. It was nice to have something to chew on and fill me up

I had mine on the 3rd. I don't mind food. I'm trying to find something to drink besides protein drinks and milk. Water tastes blah...

Does anybody else keep a nasty taste in mouth and breathe stink? How long did it last and what cured it?

I had bypass Monday. Had to be there at 715, went for surgery at 1120. Slept good and didn't feel a thing until...I woke up and my pain pump was still sitting in a chair. I spent all night awake to make sure I could push button every 10 minutes. It was terrible and even though I told everyone this wasn't right, my blood pressure was through the roof and I was sweating like crazy, it took until 9 the next morning to get some pain medicine because the after surgery nurse let my anesethia wear off before getting me on pump. Nightmare. Now I'm home day two and have no pain but nausea is keeping me down.

I'm at 715

I am eating a whole lot of cupcakes!

I know! I can hardly stand the wait

June 3rd is getting here but not soon enough. I did my grocery shopping tonight so I would have food to come home. Its going to be a challenge to find different foods that I can eat but I am up for it. For now it's going to be baby foods and soups.
