Weight loss 44 pds down

Started the gym! 5 days a week

Can't eat much! :-( the sad part

Lot of restriction!! Can't handle much as far as variety of trying foods.

Crackers cheese and milk and cheese slices and soup that's about it..

:-( tried chicken wings can't get more than 2 down.. Feel tight very quick.

Trying to get more water down! It's been hard. Missing real food. But love my weight loss!!!

Anybody else 9 weeks??

Congratulations on your weight loss. 44 pounds in 9 weeks is very good. I found that softer foods (chili and soups) went down much easier than harder foods (steak and chicken), so this is what I primarily relied on. I have included a few recipes at the end of the following article. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf

Thank you! James

Have you heard of people getting the opening stretch by there Doctor, due to food getting stuck? Not sure about that. I thought eventually we can eat more and have more variety in foods later. ?

Sometimes individuals develop a blockage after gastric bypass surgery. This is called a stricture. This makes eating and drinking rather difficult. Sometimes this will heal on its own but other times a minor medical procedure is used. Here is a link about this. https://www.realself.com/question/stricture

chicken wings are extremely fatty.

And any meat is harder to digest.

If you crave variety try the deli in your local food co-op.

They usually have interesting veggie Soups or entre`s.
