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?

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
