Surgery was May 27, I have been on liquids and Protein shakes, getting in all my Water all my protein no problem. I can drink normally taking normal swallows no sipping and I have no feeling of restriction or fullness this is getting me quite concerned. Anyone else??

You will start feeling restriction when you are eating real food.

Ditto what LipstickLady said. Just about everyone says they don't feel restriction at first. I didn't feel it very much for about a month, but at 6 months out I do. Example, I just ate about 7 grapes and I'm full! Your stomach is also pretty numb from being sliced and stapled so keep that in mind.

If I eat something like a greek yogurt, I feel that much less than if I eat something more solid, like chicken and broccoli. I'm only getting down a few ounces of them before the stomach say nope. Water, broths, Soups, yogurt they all go down really easily and you'll eat more of that because it will just slide right through.

I had the same concern! At my first post op I asked if he took out enough b/c I felt nothing. He said when you're allowed to eat regular food, you'll know. I already know something's different by my reaction some mushies/soft foods. You are not alone with that fear - I nearly freaked myself out that I had done all of this only to have the same stomach.

I had a sleeve done in dec 12 and never felt restriction, 29 May 14 I had an omega loop gastric bypass and feel no restriction with fluids at all. I went to the surgeon 2 days ago and he explained that the reason is fluid goes straight through you and will definitely feel restriction once real food begins to get eaten, at the same time you don't want to be eating until you feel that restriction . I was sure I believed that I actually had the bypass done but then he should me the pics from the surgery of before and after, I'm calm now lol

I had my surgery the same day - after my postop visit this week I was told I could start on some blended / very soft foods. Drinking liquids had not been a problem for me.

I had about a teaspoon of fat free refried Beans last night and wow I felt the restriction - it's there!

I agree with the others. I can swallow water and other liquids no problem, solid food totally different. 6-8 bites and Im done. Nibble biites. And it just sits there. Until I drink something an hour later.
