Never to soon to start! I had mine on the 11th!?? Anyone else in June yet? And how's it going?

Ugh I just had my first bad experience with food since surgery. I was eating leftovers from last night so I don't think it was the kind of food. It felt more like it got stuck. What an awful feeling!! I'm scared to eat anything now and I need to because I haven't eaten much today <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Surgery: 6/26/13 HW 370 SW 320 CW 305

I can't eat any leftover food it feels like its stuck and then my face gets all red and then I throw up lol so not good

Lol...I wonder has anyone else given their new pouch a name...

Mines Mr. Doompa... Lmao

I am five weeks out today. Surgery was June 24th. I got clearance today to move on to soft foods. I had cheated and eaten some regular food. But I just recently got real sick from eating grits. The feeling is not good. Since that day any foods I eat pureed or liquid seems to just sit around the base of my throat and just turn for about hour. very uncomfortable. Is any one out there getting this type of reaction? What do you do? lately I am hardly eating anything for fear getting sick and throwing up.

So, anyone know when surgeons decide we've put up with this "stuck food state" long enough to decide we have a stricture? I'm kinda tired of puking. Ya I know, it's only been 6 weeks.

Be persistent. I knew something was wrong and kept on my doctor and I was right.

I do feel very whiney, and really I'm normally a trooper! I am sorry to hear about your hospital stay - are they thinking that will be all fixed now or a recurring problem?

Hoping that it will stay opened. ... but there's always the chance of reoccurance later down the line. Good luck with everything. .. be persistent!

Mine is named Pearl... And recently she has been a fussy little b*tch....

:-/ ah well.

Shoot, my baby is being fussy again, looks like I got to make another call to the doc office, I may have to go back for more treatment like I did last week, if I'm not able to hold anything down come morning.

I'm having a hard time lately with eating. I'm 4 weeks out and I don't think anything tastes good anymore. I'm even having a hard time finding a liquid I can handle all day. I thought protein shakes would help on days like that but I can't even choke those down anymore :-(

I am so sorry you are having another issue with your baby.

I went through this, and still some things taste nasty. Just keep trying different things. I have come across a few protein drinks I can handle again, but it took a few weeks.

I went thru this too. It does get better. Ice cold water and watered down Crystal Light were my savior.

Crystal Light Fruit Punch has been my savior. Plain water tastes weird to me now. I used to love to chug water. :'(
