they create a "sleeve" so we are on the same journey!!

I am 14days post op and went to mushies on day 8 as i was starving! Dr said as long as i was handling it ok it was fine

I return to work Monday too and I am 14days post op Bring Yogurt and the bags of instant oatmeal they are easy and i can eat them at my desk!! Also remember fast food is good if you choose right! taco bell has pintos and cheese very small portion but perfect size for us and full of protein!!!

I WENT INTO MUSHIES AT DAY 6 AS I COULD TOLORATE IT JUST FINE!

I had it too and it went away! Now i remember the feeling of that last bite so i try to quit eating before that feeling comes!!

its because caffine is a diuretic and until you are keeping down all of your fluids you can't have caffine. My Dr said as soon as I could keep down 64ozs i could have my coffee back!

krresh i am 8days out and starving!! I had a bit of mashed potaoes and it helped but i want to stay on task! i am seeing my dr on friday and will report back if i can go ahead with the mushies!!
