Stomach problems

    I was sleeved Jan.7,2013 and am having a problem with solid foods . Don't know if this is unusual or not. Soups are fine but I can only do small amounts at each meal. When I try solids I feel like a snake that swallowed an elephant. I burp up mucous.and eventually what I ate. I am able to drink the protein shakes with no problem.
    I've heard gas is part of the sleeve process. I have it on and off.

    yes i have had this. it is too soon for most solid foods . you need to slow down i mean way slow! chew your food slower and eat mild foods at first.
    make sure you are not eating over 2 ounces at first. i got sick today from trying to take a solid vitamin. i absolutely hate the mucous throw ups.
    did your dr prescribe a pill something like prilosec? also try a sip (small sip) of coffee when you get the burps.
