Solid foods 1 month out
Today is my one month and I just started soft foods. chicken, tuna ect. After I eat I get a really heavy sensation in my stomach. Obviously it's my first day really eating "real food" and I am chewing well and trying my hardest to eat slow but whenever I'm done I'm so uncomfortable. I'm not even eating the 2 oz that I measure out. Is his feeling normal? Will it go away? I don't want to be this uncomfortable after I eat all the time. Will I eventually be able to eat a little more? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How much Protein are you getting in a day? I heard that most of the hair loss is from the lack of protein. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Significant others and family
I had my surgery on 7/26 and all is going pretty well. Still fighting to get my Protein in on this full liquid phase. I've been trying to focus so much on my fluids that protein has been on the back burner. Hopefully I'll get it all in tomorrow. Anyways, I'm posting this wondering how you guys handle your bf/gf or family and their bad eating habits. My boyfriend comes home from work with fast food or something horrible every day. I cried yesterday when I smelled his food. It makes me so mad and he knows it. I could smash his food in the floor . Any of you have to deal with a situation like this? What do you do?
