I had my surgery 10/24/12. I started at 275 and am currently down to 211.

I am still struggling with solid foods. I don't know if I'm now chewing enough or what! Does anyone else have the same problem?

Soft foods and liquids are still the easiest .. Every time I eat regular foods my stomach is very uncomfortable and I feel very nauseous.

Another issue is drinking I hate that I can't drink a lot. I am so thirsty but can't seem to get enough in.

I'm just wondering if there is something I need to improve on or if this is normal.

Thank you for any and all support!!

I struggled also. Things get better don't get frustrated.....It took me pushing through the nausea. I called the Dr and got pills for the nausea. That helped tons. I was sleeved 11/7/12, I can drink 72 oz`s of fluid a day. However, I sip, sip,sip all day. I can not drink large drinks or I will feel nausea. If I eat food to fast and do not chew enough I feel nausea. Hope this helps. Best Wishes. Tina

talk to your doctor. You may have some restrictions going on that they need to be aware of.
