Help please! I cannot swallow any food! I have no idea why. Ill chew chew chew and spit out...i even have designated bowls and cups for spitting. Im 2 months out...down 68 lbs. I order fast food...chew tons of food and simply spit it all out. I don't get any nutrition. Im worried i could die ory body will slowly shut down. Its not a stricture or anything...i don't even give my body a chance to digest anything. Im scared :-(

We're all here for you, supporting you, and always willing to listen.

So glad to hear you're eating! I hope you're able to find a good support group in your area or good therapist to stick with...remember, we're all pulling for you!

Thank you :-)

I'm glad that you were able to get the help and for admitting you were having a problem ...while I'm not chewing and spitting things out, I'm afraid of food.... I eat the same things everyday and only enough to get my protein of 60 grams in

Unjury unflavored protein in my oj

Quest protein bar

Salad

And for snack - banana apple sauce and peanuts

I have tried real foods but I never get past the first bite and its just not that appealing ...

Chicken doesn't feel right going down and I hate seafood ;(. My friend thinks I may be starting to have an eating disorder cause it may be more in my head than actually not being able to eat it

I eat a lot of the same thing over and over again too. Chicken took me a good 3 months before I could stomach it, as well as eggs took 4 1/2 months. I can only eat what I feel like as many foods do not have the same appeal they once did. I don't know how far out you are but I am 4 1/2 months and eat between 600-800 calories with an average of 70-90 grams of protein. I still do two shakes a day. Nutritionist and surgeon are both ok with my intakes.
