anyone else having issues with heartburn or gas?
No more gas issues for me, but I'm not sure about heartburn lol. Honestly with the start of soft food I'm still trying to figure out what is heartburn, what is "the full feeling" and what is just my new normal when I eat. How about everyone else?
Because of my old eating habits, it took me a while to learn what eating less really meant. I finally went out and bought a digital food scale for about 18.00 from walmart and realize about 3oz is a good amount for me. Sure 6 oz was way less than I was eating, but it was too much for me post op. I take an acid reducer ever day still, but off the DM and HTN medications since surgery day. I find I rarely get hungry, but when I don't eat every 3-4 hours, I will get stomach cramps. When I don't chew my food or crush my pills I get stomach cramps.
