WOW Hello Restriction Pain



Recommended Posts

I'm 15 days post op.....liquids and watered down oatmeal and Cream of Wheat have have been so easy for me. I was worried that it would be this easy when I started on more solid food. It's been so easy that it almost feels like I did not have anything done...

So today I thought I'd try a very very soft boiled egg....I left it in too long -- it came out like a soft hard boiled egg... I think no big deal.... I take 2 or 3 small quick bites off a demitasse spoon (forgetting to go slow) and WOW... almost immediately I felt like I was having a heart attack. And I'm not exaggerating. It was painful and very scary. I just kept walking around not knowing what to do and trying to control my semi-panic feeling. Finally I heaved it up and felt relief immediately.

I am no longer worried that my restriction won't be enough.....yikes.......

I know that feeling, I'm 2mths out and every time I eat meat I can really feel the restriction. Sometimes I want to avoid meat, but I know I need to Proteins. Ive found that if I walk around between bite or eat standing up its better.

Ugh sliming is worse! Glad you realized your restriction is good, sorry you found out the way you did. That pain is awful. The first time I felt it I thought I was dying!

Sliming is throwing up clear mucus, I get it almost everytime I eat just a little to much or something that doesn't agree with steve(the name of my sleeve)(yes I named it).I can really clear a restaurant when it happens :unsure:

Your body will produce excessive mucous to try to get stuck food down. But all it does is increase the pressure and you vomit slime. Alot of it. Everytime it's happened to me I've ended up with Dumping like symptoms 30 mins later.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
