I had the sleeve done 4/9. My diet has been clear liquids for the 1st week and then “soft proteins” for the next 2 weeks. Think eggs, beans, yogurt. I’ve started testing a few foods and when I’m eating them sometimes I get a tinge of pain and feel like I can feel the food moving through. Has this happen to anyone else? Maybe I’m not ready to start real food?

I had my surgery 4/3 and I get to start full liquids Tuesday (adding milk to my protein shakes). I've felt hungry here and there and tried scrambled eggs, tuna, and chicken. I also have pains, almost like I can feel it moving from mouth to stomach. I have to be on full liquids 2 weeks then get to start soft /pureed foods. I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to eat 20g protein/ 3 oz of meat when I start eating soft foods. I can't tolerate 3 bites.

Try really small bits for starters, like 1 teaspoon servings. I couldn't do beans at all for the first month or so. Listen to your tummy.

I remember that feeling vividly, I’m now 4 months post op. It gets better, but it can be slightly unnerving!

I was sleeved on the 7th just today I had yogurt it tasted so good, I’m so tired of liquids. What other foods are you eating?
