I felt this!!! same with me! Im 3 weeks post op now!

Im 11 days post op and im kind of regretting this. I miss eating, and by that i mean chewing and having that flavor. everything i can eat right now is soft and bland. I cant wait till I have more options and maybe i wont be so down on it.

Im glad im not the only one who has had this feeling!!!

I keep hearing that and I wanna believe it but Im still scared I wont!

Im almost 6 weeks post op and i wanna eat without feeling discomfort!!!! Its like i dont even want to eat anymore cus nothing sounds good and i dont want to be in pain. Im scared that it will be like this forever!

Im afraid im going to fail it! Im having a hard time sticking to what im suppose to be eating. I really dont want to mess this up so im going to work harder. I dont want to have done this for no reason! I feel like i cant real express myself without being bashed and just told i need a therapist

I was the same way and, to some extent, still am. My bypass surgery was 5/24. I lived on Oikos greek yogurt for about 5 or 6 weeks because other foods, no matter how pureed (YUCK!!!) or how gently cooked, would get stuck right in the middle of my chest. I would generally do a lot of pacing and deep breathing until the pain and the danger of throwing up had passed. My doctor said it was perfectly normal and would get better with a little time. As usual, he was correct. I still can't eat most meat, though some have started going down without pain. It gets a little better each day. I rarely ever ate because I enjoyed food but more because of stress, boredom and habit. Foods I used to enjoy, like pizza, don't do it for me any more. I don't even particularly like french fries now. Never thought that would happen. I do still miss my sliced apples. I will continue to try them occassionally. Just give it time. As you heal, you will be able to enjoy a broader range of food.

I'm pretty sure I put in the thing "I know everyone is different but I'm just trying to get an idea" thank you tho

I have a work vacation planned in january. I will be 8 months post op and was wondering how much weight everyone lost within that time. I know everyone is different but im just trying to get an idea.

The surgery is a tool, not a cure all. You have to work on your mind, too. Just because you CAN eat something, doesn't mean you should. Yes, you can only have way smaller portions now. But if you aren't watching your calorie, carb, and fat intake, the tool won't mean anything.
