I'm seriously concerned and need honest advice. (Please, no hate. I'm already guilt stricken enough).
I had gastric sleeve surgery on 12/22/16. I got home and was fine. liquid diet for 14, no problem. After about day 8, I started craving the sensation of chewing food. So i scrambled an egg and slowly ate it. The next day, I found my husbands candy stash and gobbled down 8 (i know, i'm a horrible person) small sized Reeses Peanut Butter cups (the small ones that are in the tin foil). I got really sick to my stomach after it happened and within 30 minutes, I had diarrhea.
I instantly threw away all the candy out of remorse. However, I'm worried I stretched my stomach because before that, I was only able to take a sip of Water every 7 minutes or so. Now, i'm able to drink several sips within a 1-2 minute period.
I'm so mad at myself. But I want to know if i just messed up my whole sleeve.
