So I'm five weeks had the sleeve done on jan 14th, and I'm having a hard time eating? I feel like I'm still in week one and the only thing I can manage to get down Is protein shakes and broth, and frankly I'm over both.... If I try to eat anything else I feel like I'm gonna throw it up or I feel nauseous. Don't know what to do. Help

Call your doctor ASAP.

I'm 2.5 weeks post op and was having the same issue this week. My md had me eat at the office. I simply don't know how to gauge myself yet. We have to train ourselves to eat and drink all over again. I was drinking and eating too fast even after slowing down it was still to fast. I was also taking in too much. Just had it all wrong. Now I count to 100 when chewing. I know it sounds crazy but until I get it right. I also bought a camelback water bottle. It kind of restricts how much you can drink in one gulp. Those two things have helped.

You may want to call your NUT for advice here.

Are you trying mushy / puree foods? Maybe they're not 'soft' enough for you at this point? I could only have 3 tablespoons of soft foods (like cream of wheat & mashed potatoes) for 2 weeks, but I was able to keep it down.

I'm 5 weeks post-op now & can eat 1/2 - cup of food. For some reason, I tend to struggle getting enough daily fluids in. I don't know why, just can't manage to get it all in.

Best advice anyone can give you... call your NUT or Dr's office and see what they suggest. It'll get better!!!

I feel your pain! I am 6 weeks out and I can barely tolerate anything that requires chewing lately. I know my doctor is going to tell me to go back to liquids.....I know the routine, it's a vicious circle. So, I will go back to my smoothies.....again. It SUCKS big time. It makes eating a chore. I've never had to work so hard to get food in. Good luck I hope you are able to get something in soon.

Egg Flower soup, Hot and Sour Soup, and Chobani Greek yogurt were my saving graces back then. This is just a stage, it will pass. It gets better!
