OK, New Question!

As many of you know I had RNY 3weeks ago today! All week I've felt crappy can't eat really.
 My belly hurt's! My Stomach Or Pouch feels like crap everytime I try to eat or drink.
Just wondering how normal this is. I figure it's probably normal.
Since I just had Major Surgery 3 weeks ago. And I'm still heeling and my body is going through changes.
But I thought I would check with some other's and see if you remember how you felt and how long it lasted!
Thanks
Rick

Yep, sounds about right to me.....
about amonth out, everytime I treid to drink it hurt. I think it was healin up big time and was restricitng alittle.

Thank you Shanna B.
 I figured that was the problem I've been trying to at least get the protein down but that's getting to be hard as well!

My surgeon said the first three weeks is the most common time for a stricture.  If this continues I would suggest calling, they may want to see you.

OK, I will call them monday if it persist through the weekend and see what they say
Thank you Jeannie

If you are sipping and eating slowly, your pouch should be feeling better.  I would be concerned about a stricture at this point like the others said.  I am sorry you are having so much pain.  Is it a feeling in the middle of your chest? 

are you writing down everything you eat?

as you see in my profile i used to look just like john goodman and i did a lot of stand up shows and they said i could be a double for him and now that i have lost so much from463 and now 174 i feel like i did when i palyed hockey for years  so you'll see and pain is only for a while and the dinking has to even be slower then you think but your still learning welcome and were all here for you

It's not really a pain! It's more like Nauseated! I switched to jus****er this morning instead of Crystal lite. I've been drinking nothing but Crystal lite. Plus I've Probably been drinking and eating to fast I'm going to take it real slow today!
As far as writing down food no! But I know what I'm eating! Oatmeal amd Cottage cheese.
My Sister-in -law had  RNY done 7 day's after me in N.C. and her Nut, Told her she could shred up chicken and mix it with salsa . I need something dif.
Thanks
Rick

Ric,

Skip the salsa for now!!  The dietician's will tell you there is too much acid in there for your "baby" belly.   My sister had her RNY done in California and she can eat peanut M&M's for protein...didn't see that on my food list anywhere - doesn't stop me from thinking I should have had mine in CA though!

My pouch was finicky for the first month or so but if you keep having problems I'd give your Doc a call and check in.
