I get the same feeling plus a clear mucus gets me spitting up a little, welcome to sliming.

Are you taking your PPI medicine?

I had this until about 8 weeks out. It's gone now. It'll go away. Eat slower, chew lots, tiny bites, and NEVER drink while eating. It'll help.

Yes, definetly, feels like it won't go down and it does not come up, and yes I eat VERY slow tiny bites.

We went to Ihop yesterday and they thought I did not like the food cause I ate so slow and so little, told them my little secret and they comped the meal.

Yes nexium

Nexium is expensive isn't it? I take Pantoprazole 40mg twice a day, it works just as good and is only $10 for a month supply of 60 pills with my insurance.(they don't cover nexium)

I do follow these rules but it still happens sometimes. I just have to get used to it and I can tell when its about to happen and I stop eatting for a few minutes.

Thanks

Thank you for your post. I'm 5 weeks out and I am on pureed food. It seems like my calorie and food intake is a lot less than other people.

I made 2.5 ounce bag of tuna with ff mayo and I halved it which left me with 1.25 ounce of tuna salad, and grabbed 3 teaspoons of cottage cheese. I mastered chewing cottage down, and I chewed the heck out of the tuna and I was able to master a whopping 1/2 bite of the tuna and I had to mix the cottage cheese for the second bite of the tuna it seemed like it was stuck and sliding down and when the first hit the entrance from the esophagus to the tummy it was like someone was wringing my stomach and esophagus.

I went for my second bite and and that's all she wrote. After that got down I relaxed a bit and decide to try one teaspoon of cottage cheese and call it a day.

I basically ended up eating a little over a teaspoon of cottage cheese, and two 1/2 teaspoons of tuna salad.< /p>

Equaling 1/2 ounce of food. Wow great dinner.

I am hoping that I can pick up the pace a bit. I have a deficit in calories every day...because of my exercise. I am doing shakes, I'll probably have to get another in now.

It's kind of got me wigged out a little bit because I'm suppose to be starting soft next week and I can't seem to get purees down.

Please someone tell me is Tuna a little harder on the system. It's all I have craved since pre-op shake lol.

ps I got nauseated for a while and I had to tell my husband to stop playing the fake drums during dinner because he was making it worse.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
