Update : doc says I have gastritis and reflux. I was taking Prilosec but NOT opening capsules. They told me in hospital they were small enough and in fact have then to me to take whole. So basically I've been pissing my pouch off for 3 weeks, which is why I'm tolerating less... Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

I can't believe you can eat any of that. I am 2 days short of a month and I'm still struggling with broth and Jello Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Bathroom habits are NOT happening. I saw Dr last week and explained the Protein shakes were coming right back up (tried several brands ). He suggested I move up to pureed and eat slowly.... Spoke to nutritionist today. She said I am def not getting enough nourishment or Fluid so im going back to Dr tomorrow. Just wondered if anyone else had a similar situation. Hubby had the surgery 2 years ago and it all went so smoothly for him.... Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Sleeved 5/12. Am just starting soft foods. All of a sudden I am nauseas all day... actually throw up upon waking AND when I do eat something it sits like a lump in my stomach for hours. I feel like my stomach wants food but then it isn't digesting it? ?? Am I nuts? Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Do you mean....no foods at all??? No Protein shakes etc???? Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Got mine the day I came home from surgery, which was about a week early. Heavier and longer usual. I attributed it to the blood thinner shots they gave me. Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Really??? I was told I could never use a straw again because I would take on too much air! I was a huge straw drinker pre-op.... guess it couldn't hurt to try? Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Surgeon said do the best I can and it will improve.... Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

I'm 24 days post op. I am still struggling. I don't see how anyone can get in the Protein and the fluids. And I NEED them. I have so little energy. A trip to the grocery store left me with a burning chest like I ran 5 miles and weak legs. I return to work tomorrow where I will need to stand for 10 hours and move quickly. ... I can't drink a whole 8 Oz Protein shake. And even Soups leave me feeling off.. saw doc on Friday..he said my pouch opening is "tight". I am so deflated. Constantly thristy.... super fearful about work tomorrow. Anyone PLEASE tell me what I am doing wrong and what was your intake like at this point? Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App

Im.not sure if it's all in my head or what. ...but for the last several days all the Protein drinks and shakes make me nauseas.... I'm also worried that not eating enough calories will slow my weight loss :/ Sent from my SM-N915V using the BariatricPal App
