Try to eat a couple of saltine crackers with peanut butter on them several times a day. The crackers help settle the stomach and the peanut butter gives you protein. I took me 3-4 weeks but it will get better. Drink some 30 gram protein drinks even if just a swallow or two at the time. The best to you.

Hello @bb21

I appreciate your input about eating after Whipple surgery. How long ago was your surgery?

Are you able to eat more normally now or do you still have restrictions as to the amount and type of food you can eat?
