Stomach discomfort on pureed food stage

I'm in week two after gastric bypass and on pureed foods. I am measuring all of my intake but every time I eat anything I get a dull ache and discomfort in my stomach. I have eaten so slowly but maybe not slowly enough? I haven't had any nausea or vomiting...just stomach pain/discomfort. Any tips on what I'm doing wrong? Oh and the constipation is totally a thing. I'm on Miralax powder every day and Colace and I'm on day three without going. Ugh.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have had that "stuck" feeling in my stomach. When that happens, dont try to wash it down with water. That just makes it worse. Move around. That will help. My doctor had me on liquids for 4 weeks post-op. I am at 6.5 weeks now and still cant get anything more than one scrambled egg, tiny pieces of grill chicken or maybe some green beans down. I am surviving mostly on shakes. The doctor says everyone is different. Oh and yes....I am on benefiber and probiotics daily for the constipation. horrible.
