I'm 4 weeks post op. I see other people and what they are eating at this junction and I see what I'm eating and I'm a little confused.
I still cannot eat eggs fixed any way without getting a little stomach upset. I can eat about 2 slices of turkey, 1/2 a hamburger patty, 1/2 a can of sardins or tuna. Fish or anything else, it's about 5-6 bites and I'm bloated. Oatmeal I can get one little package down. Liquids I can chug pretty much no problem. Cheese and yogurt is no problem.
I'm getting all my vitamins, water and protein every day. But I still don't have a lot of energy. I used to work out with 35lb dumbells. Now I do good to make a workout with 20lb'ers.
My surgeon says the sleeve will never really stretch. So is this as much as I will ever eat again? No I don't want to eat like I did before by no means, but a little more than 5-6 bites sure would be nice.
Mike
