Is it possible to stretch your stomach again



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on the 16th, I misread my meal plans and starting eating soft food a week before than I was asked too. Today I had a couple of cheetos..I know it was a stupid idea to have done so....now I feel like I've stretched my stomach out. Is that possible?

Cheetos?

nope, you're not going to stretch it with a couple of cheetos (though those are something you really shouldn't be having now, whatever phase you are in, but we all know that, lol.) A lot of us are on a soft diet from the outset, so it shouldn't be a problem, but do try to follow your surgeon's program, as there may be other reasons for their progression rates.

I went to soft food a few days out of surgery- you should be fine. Just be careful it’s really soft and it’s mostly about letting your stomach heal at that stage and not popping staples or whatever they use inside your stomach.

Get all the yucky yummy food out of your house lol. This is hard enough without temptations around

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
