Hello! I had a sleeve done in April and 4 months out if became kinked and then just on this past Monday 6 days ago i was converted to a Bypass. When I had the sleeve done i could only sip little tiny bit of even Water and it would hurt. It took forever to progress to more liquid and food. Since day one out of my surgery when they would let me drink I was able to drink normal just like I was prior to the surgery, Also i am able to get the pureed food down no issue at all and I NEVER have a full feeling. I dont know if the bypass full is the same and the sleeve full but either way I dont feel full.

Dont get me wrong I dont keep eating but it is rather disturbing that I dont feel anything at all when I eat. It kind of concerns me. Is the food just slipping on through?

I was hoping that someone maybe has experienced this before? I am really anxious about it and am reaching out for help from all of you all.

Thanks.

First of all I am pre op. so take what I say as just somebody who has gleaned info from this site.

It is possible that your pouch is still a bit anesthesized and that any day now this ability you have to drink

and eat so freely will kick you in the chest so to speak. Don't push it of course, as you said you weren't so that is good. But nothing may be wrong at all. Also you may have been way way more miserable then you even realized with the kinked sleeve and you have actually gotten some relief with the Rny conversion. Still take it slow, sip sip sip, take small bites, chew even the pureed foods, and eat slowly and only eat the amounts you are supposed to. You have a lot of healing going on in there. Tomorrow is Monday don't hesitate to call your docs office. They can tell you if this is ok or not.

Just relax today and keep sipping and enjoy the fact that you aren't going to be dehydrated.

I will be praying for you and sending you positive thoughts.
