if i can't drink it, it doesn't stay down.

i am almost 6 weeks post lap rny and am still unable to tolerate solid foods. i know that this is early and i need to give it time, but i am serious, IF I CAN'T DRINK IT, IT WON'T STAY DOWN. it doesn't matter how much i chew of even if i puree my food. the only thing that stays down is stuff that i can drink (protein shakes, h2o). i also still don't feel hungry at all, and don't need to hear 'just wait, you will'. is there anyone else with these same issus??? i'd like to know if there are people that are long term post-ops that still never get hungry and/or have to remember to eat. one bonus of being on a liquid only diet.... i've lost 40 pounds in 5 weeks. lap rny 12-29-03 255/215
