Trouble Eating
Yes, I have the same problem. I try to eat SLOWLY, one meal (6 oz.) might take me 45 mins to get down. But if you keep with it, you'll be able to get the food down.
My doc also prescibed me lanaprazole (not sure if I spelled that right) which I take every day, and that seems to eliminate the pains.
It's just the fact that we are so swollen at this stage. If it were not for my anti nausia meds, I probably would not be able to eat.
Hope that helps.

What are you trying to eat 6oz of at 3 weeks?? I wasn't even cleared for solids until 6 weeks out. I still at 3 mo out only eat 2-2.5 oz of dense meat or 1/2 cup of soft food at a time.

Ummm, please check with your surgeon and or bariatric team for some guidance on post-op eating. I have never seen anyone who has been allowed to eat some of those things (unless they were put in a blender) at 3 weeks. And 6oz? No way.

Uh, I can't eat 6 oz of food at 7 1/2 months out. Be grateful for the restriction, and don't pu**** I can eat 4oz, MAX, of very mushy stuff like cottage cheese. Anything dense, and I can't go much past 2 1/2 oz. I just had 2.25oz of grouper (soft, white fish), and maybe 2 bites of broccoli for dinner.
