I can eat something one day, the next I can't tolerate it?



Recommended Posts

Hi all!
I'm 44 days post op and I find my pouch confusing...I discovered ricotta bake when I first started puree foods. I ate it for dinner for days, and then one night two bites in I was in discomfort and it bounced right back out. Ricotta in general, tried it again on it's own. I was fine. Tried it another day and it bounced. Scrambled eggs, good one day, I'm throwing up the next. Same thing with tuna salad on Protein chips.
So I'm wondering, for those who have experienced this, does it become more predictable? Is my body just weird :o)

I’ve been wondering the same thing. I’m 45 days out now, and the same thing keeps happening to me. It’s so frustrating!

I am over a year post op Oct 3rd 2016. Most things I can eat but I still have days I can't tolerate eggs, chicken, tuna, or broccoli. Some days anything is fine. Hope you feel better.

I had my surgery in 2013. Still today eggs I can eat one day and the next day I can't. Also happens with Pasta. I just have learned to start off with a little and see how it goes.

Yes! I have the same thing. Greek yogurt, one day I love it. The next, just the smell turns me off. eggs, fab for a week straight, the next week, nope, not today. It's an interesting process and I just accept it for what it is. I usually know within a bite or two.

The exact same. I was eating ground turkey and lettuce for a week, and then now any variation of it and I instantly throw up... actually most foods I can’t tolerate at all. I’m still doing mostly soft foods with a few small exceptions.. I’m 10 weeks out too. Smells and things make me sick too. Nothing even really tastes good to me anymore. It’s the memory of how it used to taste..

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
