Next week I will be one month post op. My tastebuds are definitely different. I barely eat I am beginning to drink water more now. It’s not easy, but I am happy I made the choice still new in the process going with the flow of my journey. VSG surgery.

[@davidgadbury1832]

I can totally relate to not measuring things. I'm from the south too and most people I know that cook won't measure. Great video BTW.

[@LiveHealthyMD]

Yep, down here in the south we like to go off taste, not measurement! And thank you!

Best video for what to anticipate and very informative. My surgery is next week and a bit nervous of what to expect afterwards.

[@gazaempress92]

Congratulations, to you on the rest of your journey 🎉 ! I’m 5 weeks post op, from having gastric bypass. I’ve had my ups, and downs with foods (now that I’m in the solid phase). My doctor instructed me, to stay away from the microwave. Which I’ve stopped using, long before my surgery because it kills your food. This morning, I tried to have an egg white omelette, cottage cheese (fat free) with sun dried tomatoes. I literally had about 4 SMALL pieces of eggs, & I had to vomit 😞. I cannot wait, until it gets much better!

[@LiveHealthyMD]

It is not uncommon to have various food intolerances early on (first several months) however if this continues to be an ongoing problem or is worsening than you could be developing a stricture (narrowing of the opening from the stomach to the intestine) or have an ulcer and should be seen by your surgeon

Yes, what many individuals fail to recognize is the hard work that is put into maintaining the weight loss after surgery. Also there are a lot of strict rules patients must follow to ensure their health and safety before and after surgery. But congrats on your surgery and we wish you the best of luck on your journey!

As long as you eat carbs in a low to moderate amount (depending on your physical activity), you should not have to worry about regain. Although we encourage patients to avoid eating carbs, especially simple carbs like white bread and cookies, for optimal weight loss after surgery.
