I had surgery on 6/29 gastric sleeved @ Mass General Hospital . I went to my 2 week post up appt with surgeon and nutritionist. So far I'm one of the lucky ones that haven't had any issues, no nausea, nor pain. She said I can pretty much each eat any food and fruit , but to be smart and use my common sense on what I'm eating. No fried food, no breads, Pasta, nor rice. And try to avoid fruit and veggies with skins. But to definitely try veggies and other food that I may tolerate. And eat my Protein first since my stomach is so small. Just wondering if any one had same diet?

This was exactly what I was instructed by my surgeon at my 2 week post-op checkup. I'm eating grilled chicken and pork, squash, green Beans, cherries, mozzarella cheese, etc. Chewing them to baby food consistency, but it's still real food :)

I'm almost weeks post op and I can barely eat without pain. Is this normal? I'm scared that I'm never gonna get to eat again without worry or pain

What are you eating? Are you taking small sips/bites and chewing well?

Take small sips. Try different temps of your liquids - some tolerate warm more than cold (or vice versa). Good luck! If you continue to have pain - give your surgeon a call.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
