Ever since surgery I've been craving spicy food. My doctor said I can eat it and if my new stomach doesn't like it then I'll know right away. I'm 4 weeks post op with chili & buffalo flavored foods calling my name. Anyone able to eat spice with no issues? TIA

I'm only 6 days out and still on liquid but my current favorite Soup (strained of course) is an organic chicken tortilla southwest style Soup. Definitely has a kick but my doc said the same-as long as I'm tolerant of it, shouldn't be an issue. I would say minimal at first, small bites, and take your time savoring :) you know your pouch best!

I eat spicy foods (really really spicy hehe). I like sour and spicy stuff, and don't care for anything sweet. I have no issue with it at all. My surgeon said that's fine as long as I can tolerate it too, so whew. :D I do take famotidine 20mg twice a day as per my surgeon.

I could not WAIT until I had a teaspoon of refried Beans with a dash of salsa or taco sauce! I am a Mexican food junkie! Three years later, maybe four chips and Queso and Salsa, I stop'. I think I could go on for weeks!!!!! But my health is more important, and I refuse to go there.

I tried hot and sour Soup Friday and it burned a little in my chest. I'm going to try again in another couple weeks! My heartburn is really bad though. I hope once that subsides I will tolerate a bit more spicy:-)

Ever since my surgery I have just wanted to swim in a giant bowl of Siracha sauce.

      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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
