I'm a lil over 3 wks post op. Anything I eat causes me chest comfort. I think I'm eating slowly. Just feels like food gets stuck... then I begin to burp and sometimes my food comes up. What can I do?

I'm 3weeks out and ate too much Protein at one sitting of eggs and chicken ( 1 oz chicken and two eggs) I had chest pain and had to throw up . It was soft and pureed but too much. I think it is the eggs in my case and eating too fast. We have a whole new stomach just be patient and well get through it. How much have you lost so far? I have lost 21 lbs in first two weeks and nothing since!

Good golly miss Molly!! now wonders it hurt a good rule of thumb is to take in about 1/4 cup protein at a time when three weeks out.

Great job on the weight loss though !!!

Well that ones a little harder... Is it just eating or eating and drinking??

I get that tightness too. But it depends on what I'm eating. Refried Beans with ground chicken, no problem. But boiled eggs, sugar free Jell-O, and sugar free popsicles cause tightness and the burps.

You may be need to test different foods and narrow down which ones are the culprits.

That's pretty normal some food will treat you better than others. And no loss at not being able to eat jello and Popsicles

Sometimes when I eat certain food or to much or to fast I get the hiccups !!

Was really embarrassing at the sushi restaurant last week 0_o

So far I lost 32 lbs since surgery. When I eat sko there is about a min or two btwn each bite...is that slow enough? Usually happens when I eat.

You are definitely eating at the right pace !! And great weight loss! U may have swelling still from surgery. Are you getting your liquids in ok? And eating small bites? and chew chew chew and then chew some more?

Thank u! Liquids go in with no problem I gulped my Water once becauseI was so thirsty. ... and boy I learned my lesson... only sips now. I chew my food until its dry and then it gets stuck. ... then I can't drink anything to wash it down .
