I'm right there with you! Just remember, we're newbies, and we have a brand new stomach we've got to adjust to. A friend of mine who had the surgery several months ago said it's completely normal to go through a "oh no, what have I done?" stage, but that it passes and it's totally worth it.

Please don't get discouraged. Remember, you went through a major surgery, most of your stomach was removed. Your body needs time to adjust. The first month is a rocky road. But remind yourself WHY you did this. The health benefits. And think outside the box with foods. Some can get boring. Try some malt-o-meal/cream of wheat. My favorite was mashed potatoes! I even made a stew and threw it in the blender (sounds nasty, but was the tastiest meal ever!). Also, low sodium egg drop soup! I stocked up on that.

It'll be ok.. One Day At a Time darling... :)

1 week out today... I'm doing full liquids now but I've squeezed in some applesauce and I also put shredded cheese into my soup because my stomach absolutely needed something of substance. NOTHING with lumps at all.....peanut butter goes down smooth long as I take it super slow. Do what your dr. says but also trust your body's signals. HINT.... I started using V8-splash smoothies with unflavored protein from unjury....makes a great shake and you can squeeze in like 30 grams ....works. I am craving food.....but only head hunger. Good luck!!! We are on our way!!!
