Nine weeks out and I still cannot eat. I may can eat one day and then it will be several days before I can eat again. One thing I have discovered is that I cannot eat anything with spice???? I have always loved spicey food, but just plain black pepper just sets my stomach on fire?? I made squash casserole and baked boneless chicken thighs yesterday.....all I could taste was black pepper....just one bite and that was all I could handle. I have been on a long stall......was told I was not drinking enough water and not eating enough. I cannot drink anything at least 30 minutes before I eat and at least 30-45 minutes after I eat. So it is either eat or drink? Been trying real hard to get my water and protein in, but I just cannot eat??? NUT said I should be eating at least a half cup by now.....but that is not happening ... the only thing I can handle is soup??? Any suggestions???

The drinking thing is for all the other WLS, not for DS. If you need to sip to help settle things in your stomach you are welcome to do so. I have been and have been advised by vet dsers that it's perfectly fine. The Nut told me the same thing and it's not for us. Many people cannot handle chicken, have you tried baked fish or even tuna with lots of mayo? I've found guacamole to be very comforting to my tummy. Are you on the FB support group for Lubbock? LADS? It's for anyone in Lubbock that had the DS, we meet monthly and they have tons of advice. You have to be careful with the advice you get here as the DS is the least known and the most misunderstood of them all.
