Mam, I have been reading your post for a while and also suffer with strictures. Did they tell you back to liquids after scoping? Then puréed...then soft foods...etc? I do alot of soup...egg drop, hot and sour soup...and fage greek yogurt...pretty much daily. Can do seafood, no left overs of anything...(they are too dry and get stuck) no pills...no real carbs, ie potatoes bread or rice. This time has been mostly successful, they dilated me to 15mm. Protein Shakes as needed...

They only said wait 24 hours before eating again. No liquid or soft food.

I thought you had a stricture, so in that case the things that you vomited previously should not cause it this time (or at the least might not) because what I heard from my friend with the same issue, is that everything made him throw up. He was also told to go back to liquids and move up through the stages (much more quickly though then after surgery) to reintroduce foods to his pouch. Perhaps you might try that and do a stage for a couple days then move up a stage. liquid, pureed, etc... But soon you should be able to tolrerate a lot more food than when you were dealing with the stircture. Also my friend had to have the stretch done 3 times before he was back to normal and could eat without vomiting.

Best of luck!! It will all go up from here, right?

It looks like now I'm able to eat anything & everything except chicken Lolz.. Damn you chicken!!! I try spagetti but didn't like the taste didn't eat. I had a slice if pizza from papa John since I was really hungry & we went to the beach family time. Omg! That pizza taste so good. It had double extra cheese. Wasn't greasy or oily. I had a Celeste 1/2 today for lunch. Thus won't be an everyday thing. So far I'm doing really good. Had grill cheese 1/2 yesterday. Less then 1/4 boars head ham. I'm beginning to love it now surgery. I'm going to be careful with everything though since I'm still new not 3 months yet.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
