I had my first "mushy" meal today. I had some salmon and peas. I felt good. Ate real slow and even set a timer to chew for a full 30 sec and then laid my fork down for a 90 sec before taking my next bite. Stopped at 20 min and I was satisfied. About 3 hours later I had some plain Greek yogurt, ate small bites and waited. Then wound up with a wicked stomach ache????

Has anyone had that happen? Wondering of my stomach just was shocked after going so long without food and then got bombarded.

Any suggestions???

I'm on mushies too - good girl sounds like you did it perfectly! I don't know about your stomach ache but I've gotten a couple myself since starting foods and I figured it was just that - my stomach not used to food. Hope you feel better soon.

I agree you really sound like you are doing everything right, I think I need to put more importance on chewing. But because I'm at the same point I don't have a fill. I'm assuming that changes

I've found Greek yoghurt to upset my stomach a little compared to other foods (including spicy foods) which have been fine.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
