You should call your doctor and tell him what is going on. Try sugar free Jello or sugar free popsicles and see what happens.

Hi, oh man that doesnt sound too good. I am sorry your feeling like this, but isnt this what you opted for? I think this is the thought behind this surgery to not be able to eat. I havent went for surgery yet, but had my NUT appt my doc puts you on pureed foods rt from the start. So you may want to talk to your doc. Maybe its normal to feel how you do. Im sure in a few weeks your gonna love it! Best of luck to you I hope you feel better soon.

Don't freak out, this I only temporary. Before you know it your stomach will be able to tolerate all and any foods. For these few fragile months when you can only eat bites if food at a time, embrace them. It is when you have the most restriction, and tend to loose the most weight. Take advantage.

I was sleeved 4-23 too. I too have been feeling the same. But yesterday I put a dab of sugar free cool whip on my Jello and had some Tomato Soup. Made all the difference in the world. Today is my first day of feeling good. Hang in there. Scour the message boards for ideas and support. It's not a Picnic but it will pass. Baby steps

I also had surgery on the 23rd. I felt awful until pod 5. Then i turned the corner! Im still exhausted and struggling to get my fluids in, but 1 day at a time right?!? Hang in there! The sun will come out tomorrow! :0)

You guys will be fine! It will get better. You had major surgery and this is normal. Do something to get your mind off food. You will turn that corner as i did. Trust me

I'm 3 weeks post- op and started soft diet. I had a my first scrambled egg today. The weeks will go by quickly. Don't rush into anything. But talk to your dietitian. You'll be happier in a few weeks.

I had surgery 4/22, went for my first week postoperative appt today. For me it's 3 weeks out before I can have puréed/mashed potatoes. Each doctor has their own rules so check with yours. I know how you feel, I miss chewing!

Make sure you try a variety of full liquids. I am a sweet then salty kind of person. I have Peanut Butter chocolate Protein Shakes and a fruit punch Protein that I mix with lemonade Vitamin Water Zero. A variety of crystal light a s then lots of broth, cream Soups (tomato, cream of chicken, cream of mushroom) ... I know everyone is different but variety definitely seems to help me.

Good luck to you.. i was eatin an egg the day after surgery ,,My dr. rules were great. Purees were immediate.. Call your dr. he will let you know. It does get better .I am 6 weeks post op today and can eat what i want , but i try to be healthy about it. i can only eat a little bit so it is still hard to get all the requirements in.
