I am just about 3 weeks post-op and really want a salad. Does anyone know how long I should wait?

I think I'll wait for that salad. Nothing has made me sick as of yet. However I don't want to push it. I have eaten a few non-mushy foods and felt fine. It still amazes me how little it takes to feel full. Thanks for the replies. It's so much better to get answers from people that have done this.

I am right behind you, I had my surgery April 27th. I am so obsessed with the scale. In December I was 265 and am down to 234. So everyday since I've been home I've dragged out my 20 yr old Health-O-Meter and stepped on looking for miracles. The first week after surgery I was getting on 2 times a day.. Woo Hoo, losing every-time. However in the past 3 days I have not only not lost anything but much to my horror, I gained 2lbs. God only knows how that is possible when practically nothing is going in. The good news though is that today it is gone again. I really have to make an effort to stay off that beast. Not only does it weigh 10 lbs and is a major pain the ass to drag out, but it's not doing anything for my mental health. I am driving myself crazy. I have decided that I'm only going to get on once a day. Wish me Luck
