Stomach cramps!

[mactownmom]

I had the gastric sleeve on 7/31/14 and I've lost 23 pounds so far. There were three of us who had the surgery on the same day. The other two are eating several meals a day with no pain. Everytime I eat, after about the second bite of food, I get pretty bad stomach cramps and a little bit of nausea. I've tried chewing really slow and I'm only eating really soft foods. I don't know if this is normal or if there's a problem. Other than the cramps, I feel GREAT! Lots of energy and no pain. I sometimes get these cramps when I drink my protein shake in the mornings, but it happens everytime I eat. Any suggestions? Anyone else having this problem?

I get the same thing when I eat. I just have to eat small bites and slow. I had my surgery July 8th and even though I pretty much eat anything I want I can only tolerate a couple bites. Then I feel full so I stop and then eat another couple of bites in about 15 or 20 minutes. I don't push my full feeling. I have found foods I tolerate better than others.
