Congratulations on your great start!!

Any time you advance your diet, it is scary. Take small spoonfuls and rest between, give your body time to react to the new items. You may find things that just don't agree, but don't give it up, just try it a little further down the road and see if anything is different.

YOu may feel & hear grumbling from your sleeve when you introduce new items but in my experience, that is normal. Every time I tried something new, it was like WHOA!! what's that -- not in a bad way, but I did have a reaction. Thankfully I had no issues with anything really, but I kept it mild and took it slow.

I was only able to get in a few ounces of soft foods, that has increased to about 4 oz. which is what I expected (I'm 6 months out)

Has it only been the last two days you have had trouble drinking? What , if anything has changed?

Best of luck to you!!

Just felt kinda sick and didn't want to drink. The few bites i had about 20 minutes ago just sent me to the bathroom already but i don't feel bad

Yes, I am still afraid to eat things, gotta say eggs are not MY best friend unless they are hard boiled and mashed with a fork...

I'm afraid of a few things, glucerna made me dump... "that was so awful" I'm just so careful about what goes in my mouth.

I also have trouble getting liquids in with the restriction of no drinking 30 min before or after a meal... Makes it a challenge..

So I think you are very normal

Best wishes to you!

      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! 😞
