my pouch dislike everything i eat or drink
What have you tried eating and drinking? When you say your pouch dislikes everything, what does that mean exactly? You feel nauseous or your stomach hurts or you throw up or what?

All of those things you tried eating are things I still don't do well with and
I'm 8 months out. Keep trying and you'll find what works for you. From the
day I could eat soft foods, chili and all beans have been my mainstay. I can
now eat ground meats and I make a variety of "stews" from scratch with beans,
ground meats and veggies, as well as home-made chili. I think I will always do
better with mushy foods, so I work with it. One of these days, I am determined to
be able to eat eggs! Good luck!

Eggs are hard on our tetchy little pouches right at first; I don't know why, but I couldn't eat eggs
for more than a year, and then only very runny.
I found that tuna was a nice segue into soft foods, for some reason it didn't bother my tummy.
Shrimp and scallops were also easy.
Just do a couple of ounces at a time; don't overfull your pouch. That will make you pretty
miserable, too.
Don't worry, it will happen. Keep trying ground meats, tuna, shrimp, etc.
Best wishes,

Keep trying. You need some bulk going through you or you'll end up with diarrhea or constipation. Sip your water, don't try to gulp. Get some papaya enzyme, as it helps with touchy pouch issues. Like your doc says, this is somewhat normal. Find a support group to attend. You'll hear similar stories there. DAVE
