Question:
Why can't I eat solids

I had a RNY gastric bypass and can not eat solids or soft foods. I am 4 1/2 months out of surgery. The endoscope showed that everything is fine. My surgen is at a loss. Please help me, I eat slow and without liquids, and chew chew chew. Still an hour after eating I have to vomit. I had an UGI and have no blockages. Please help!!!!    — melissa J.

hi, i had rny on 12-07-2000 and i still cannot eat solids, the closest i come is yogurt and jello, and i have to be careful even with the yogurt.... my best friend is eating everything.. i am assuming that each of us is different... i do get my protein in with powders mixed with milk, and it makes me feel so much better and am walking... i am losing weight steadily and will see my doctor today to ask why is it i cannot tolerate soft foods... viola canton
