My tiredness comes and goes. Just ate some chicken salad and I think my pouch who I named Stella doesn't like pickle relish :(

And I relish relish! Let's trade, you get my chicken and I'll get your relish! ;-)

So I have been really having some issues with my pouch who I think I am gonna name pita pain in the ass)...I eat one day something and good the next time I am in the bathroom puking! Something is stuck. I never knew what it felt like to swallow a rock, but am learning. Back to. solids. I am also having a hard time accepting the wings (under arm flab) and tummy... I really want to eat a.meal with Protein and such and enjoy it. Just so frustrated and really done with the iccky foods that are blah!!!

I've been struggling because I would just rather not eat anything than deal with eating the same tiresome things or risk hurting or getting sick. I feel like it's not worth cut to cook when I probably won't be able to eat it anyway. I have found that Pork rinds have become a great substitute for potato chips. Really trying to find things I like to eat instead of not eating at all.

Endoscopy tomorrow to dilate. Too tight, not getting enough calories in... I thought immediately- and this is a problem?! ;) But, yes I realize why it's important just couldn't help feeling apprehensive of doc making it easier for me to eat.

Y'all are scaring me with all the talk about puking and dumping. I'm 3 wks post op yesterday and haven't been sick yet. I eat only 1/2 cup of full liquids, pudding, Soup etc and have not had issues. I worry about my next stage, is it inevitable that I will be sick trying to advance?

I am 6 weeks out and have not experienced dumping. I puked once because I ate too fast.

I was scared too lol!! I am 5 weeks out and haven't puked or dumped.

I was really careful on what I eat and how much. I was scared every time I tried something new. I also chew my food ALOT!!!!

Some people have more sensitive pouches than others and I feel awful for them!! They can do everything correct and they will still puke or dump.

Not a very good food day....I find it really hard when I get busy at work. I usually am able to hit 700 calories and like 60-70g of protien.

I've been struggling to find Protein rich foods I can tolerate. Tonight I bought a regular sized can of boiled peanuts. 24g of protein for the can. I was able to eat and tolerate it! Yay for something I love and that's rich in protein! Also, Peanut Butter crackers have been a blessing!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
