Does anyone else feel the things they swallow go through the stomach?



Recommended Posts

I'm still on liquid diet. I have been taking my meds crushed with sugar free pudding. There are times , even with my shakes and Water that I feel that I can feel it going through. Some of it causes me pain. My next part is a soft diet. I will be 2 weeks out Thursday. I tried a bit of scrambled egg today, just because after 4 weeks of liquids (pre diet included) I wanted something a bit more food like. Now even though I chewed it well I felt it. It hurt. Now it feels like it is sitting in there. I'm regretting the bite!! Don't do it!!! I'm 20lbs down now from the beginning of the month. 10 lbs down before. 10 lbs down since surgery 1.5 weeks ago. My twin sons told me today I'm looking skinner. Can't screw this up!

At first I could feel almost everything. Dr & NUT both said it was due to inflammation in the beginning. It did go away, mostly. Almost 9 months out now & I can feel cold (like ice cold) beverages as they go down, but that is about it. I still get really good restriction & can't eat big bites, but doesn't hurt & doesn't bother me anymore.

I have been able to take all my meds whole, with no issues.

      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! 😞
