I can eat ANYTHING



Recommended Posts

I am 3 months post op and there is not one single thing that I have not been able to tolerate. I can gulp drinks, drink through a straw, swollow without chewing to a mushy consistency and I have not once felt anything less then normal. This is extremely bittersweet. I wish I had some food intolerances. Has anyone else experienced this? Have any advise, wisdom or support?

Where did you have your surgery? Have you thought to call them and ask these questions?

I, for one, would be interested in their reply.

Let us know.

Keep on Keep'n on! :)

I pretty much can do the same. I definitely have restriction after a few bites, but so far 8 months out I can tolerate all foods I have tried and really have no intolerances either.I have overdone it occasionally, too much of something and felt nauseated, but it was more from too much then the food itself. I feel grateful for my sleeve, and really need to watch how much and not push that last bite that puts me over the edge. It is hard.

I envy this.

I know you say you can eat "anything" but surely you feel like you can't eat the same amount, right?

I STILL have things that bother my stomach. The lining or something. But yes I too can usually drink normally now, depending on what position my body is in. I try not eat more than the half cup or cu of food though because I am terrified of something going wrong.

It sounds to me like your stomach is a HAPPY stomach.

I am 8 months post op and can also eat anything.

I haven had any issues.

I am also finding that I can eat more and am feeling hungry more often.

Trying to stay around 1200 calories, but it's challenging now.

Are you taking Probiotics or digestive enzymes? I am not as far out from surgery from you but I find I can tolerate nearly anything. My doctor encourages lots of drinkable yogurt/kefir, probiotics and digestive enzymes. I think these may be the reason I can tolerate different foods. I still feel the restriction if I eat more than a couple of ounces.

I had it done in the states. Yes, I definitely feel full and restricted but I get hungry again after only about an hour or two. I can't eat nearly as much as I used to. I guess I'm more thankful that I have a 'happy' stomach and I'm losing weight slowly , I just feel like not much changed as I was hoping with losing the hunger inducing hormones. I wish I hated food! The struggle is real.

the only thing I didn't care so much for was steak and venison. will try again later - just made me feel a little off. no real problems with it.

I am glad! I can have anything. in small amounts. :-) it's a good thing, really.

Are the "ANYTHING foods" healthy foods? If so enjoy it with moderation...

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
