Tough Tome Eating!



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 month's post op. Went to New York over Christmas. I had a terrible time eating out. I my son took me out for lobster which I thought would be fine. I. Felt sick for nearly two hours. Will it always be like this? He doesn't know about the surgery so it was really difficult. Advice please?

I'm 3 months out and still having a tough time too. I had a tiny piece of turkey and a little mac and cheese for Christmas dinner and threw it all up and felt horrible. Sometimes I can eat something and the next time I try, it makes me sick.

I'm also 3months as of the 24th and I am really having a hard time eating.. There are days i can tolerate chicken then they next time I vomit.. It gets frustrating sometimes.. I've lost 53 pounds, but I think it's because I throw up a lot.. I have an appt on 1/8 maybe the doctor can help me figure this out..

So far I'm not having any difficulties eating out. I would suggest that when you eat out you keep the food simple. Baked chicken, steamed lobster, etc... You may have to ask the wait staff to tell the chef limits seasonings. Heavier foods like mac & cheese may be too challenging.

I eat out often, but when I do I generally stick to baked or grilled chicken or fish. Or if the food is wet cooked, I make sure it isn't too fatty. Although my sleeve is very forgiving, I try not to challenge it too much.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
