I am 3 months post op and there is not one single thing that I have not been able to tolerate. I can gulp drinks, drink through a straw, swollow without chewing to a mushy consistency and I have not once felt anything less then normal. This is extremely bittersweet. I wish I had some food intolerances. Has anyone else experienced this? Have any advise, wisdom or support?

I envy this.

I know you say you can eat "anything" but surely you feel like you can't eat the same amount, right?

I STILL have things that bother my stomach. The lining or something. But yes I too can usually drink normally now, depending on what position my body is in. I try not eat more than the half cup or cu of food though because I am terrified of something going wrong.

It sounds to me like your stomach is a HAPPY stomach.

I pretty much can do the same. I definitely have restriction after a few bites, but so far 8 months out I can tolerate all foods I have tried and really have no intolerances either.I have overdone it occasionally, too much of something and felt nauseated, but it was more from too much then the food itself. I feel grateful for my sleeve, and really need to watch how much and not push that last bite that puts me over the edge. It is hard.

Where did you have your surgery? Have you thought to call them and ask these questions?
I, for one, would be interested in their reply.
Let us know.
Keep on Keep'n on!

January 19th for me! I'm excited and so nervous.
