Issues with solids. Plz help me!!!

Hello there I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong..

I've been on shakes a long time no issues with that or yoghurt consistency...

Soon as I started this week some solids like healthy slice meat or a tiny 2oz chicken free range burger.. I had to chew a lot..

But as the burger was going down i could literally feel it going down my neck into my stomach felt weird and was Almost like indigestion until it settled in my stomach after about 10 mins but then I had to rush to toilet and some clear liquid came back up my throat with a little foam.. It has happened a few times..

Am I eating too quickly? Should I only have one bite then wait then have the next bite?

Rather than just chewing the whole 2oz burger quickly..

I've been doing amazing but until experimenting with solid stuff has not been pleasant...

So far I've tried some sliced meat which was ok but still felt weird going down.. The burger made me throw up some clear stuff...Took time to settle in my belly... Had 2 little cherry tomatoes that didn't agree with me at all came straight back up...

What am I doing wrong??????

Thank you everyone I'm 6.5 weeks post op.

  • You have to retrain your tum just as someone said, like an infant. So you can't easily go from liquids (yogurt is considered a liquid in my program) to dense solids without issues. Use meat lube

Honestly, I still have issues with eggs at eight months out. Chicken is hit or miss for me, depends on how it's prepared and how moist it is. Dry chicken is a no-go.

Red meat, oddly, I have zero problems with.
