In my experience I have tried to eat many of the things I loved before my surgery, but after a few bites of starches (which I, too, loved) I've had enough. The sick, full feeling you will get immediately stops you. I was always planning my next meal before I had finished the first and now I have to force myself to eat because I truly never feel hunger.

Yes, it took me several days to get the gas out and then I felt amazing:) I'm two months out and just now becoming "normal".

I am the exact age, height and my starting weight was 268. I had bypass on March 22 and am currently at 225 as of today may 1. I am pretty active, but the biggest change is I never feel hungry, ever. I have to force myself to eat to get in the Protein and nutrients I need. Before, all I could think of was what and when I was going to eat next.

I had my surgery in December which means I was on liquid preop and postop through 3 holiday parties, two birthday parties, a funeral, Christmas dinner at grandma's and New Year's Eve. Got through all of them drinking Protein shakes, ice Water and sipping broth with Protein Powder. Over two years later that is all a distant memory and a very teeny tiny part of my WLS journey.
Don't get bogged down in the "now". These first few months are nothing compared to the decades you will spend as a healthier, skinnier you.

I am 12 days post op and my doctor said I could try to ease soft foods in slowly. I tried a string cheese eating very slowly. I must have bitten off more than I should and I honestly thought I was going to die. I was in severe pain and burning up with nausea. I had to pull over while driving a half hour after and walk around until it passed. I am back to yogurt and shakes for awhile. It definitely made me not want to try anything more so soon.
