Experienced Sleevers - Tolerances/Intolerances



Recommended Posts

Just curious... After your sleeve, what are foods you cannot tolerate now that you could before and vice versa? I've read a lot about people becoming lactose intolerant and I was just curious how many people have experienced that and/or other issues.

Thanks!

The only thing I struggle with is eggs. I was never a big fan of them before surgery, but they make me sick as a dog now, and have since I came out of surgery. They're quite good Protein, so it's a shame, but oh well.

My sister in law is 6 years post op RNY, and for the first 5 years, she couldn't have milk in any form. Threw up every time. The doctors all told her to just try it maybe twice a year and see what happens, because apparently, things that we couldn't tolerate early on, can change...

She can drink milk now. Lol. For the past year, it's been fine! All of the sudden. Interesting, eh?

Soda, Pasta, deep-fried foods, even in small portions.

I couldn't tolerate lactose, artificial sweeteners or plain Water for 4 months, but now I can. Too much alcohol, coffee or fried food gives me gastritis and I can't do carbonation at all.

Lactose.. I had a mild intolerance pre op..

Now 7months post op it's lactose, artificial sweeteners and red wine.. ( I think the problem with red wine is the preservatives in it).

No bread made with yeast and nothing carbonated for me. They don't make me throw up or anything but they make me super uncomfortable.

coffee bothered me sat first, i had always been a black coffee drinker, for awhile i was having cream with my coffee...cuts the acid. 8 mo. post op and my coffee consumption has gone down but i tolerate black coffee fine.

potatoes, rice, Pasta, grilled meats (too dry) add applesauce to get it down. Fried foods, mostly get sick when I eat out. Hidden fat in everything.

Got sick as a dog drinking premixed bottled margarita mix this weekend. I think it was a mixture of dumping syndrome and high blood sugar at the same time. I have been having more trouble with pre diabetes post surgery. (meaning i've had several bouts of high blood sugar feelings, more so now than pre surgery)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
