  1. I started eating food before I was supposed to, did anyone else? I didn't have trouble except for a little acid reflux.
  2. Sorry to get back so late...I've been busy. Well, I'm doing ok. I'm not tolerating the foods that I'm allowed to eat. Cottage cheese, eggs, nothing sets well, it feels like my stomach is burning everytime I eat one of those items. Any suggestions?

    Two weeks post-op update

    Hello all! Well, today is not only my birthday but it is my two week post-op day! :thumbup1: After surgery, I did really well. I was only in the hospital overnight, I was up walking around the day of my surgery and the next day as well. The biggest problem I had was drinking the fluids. My throat hurt from the tube, and I had a hard time swallowing. I found that Broth was about the only the that made that better. In fact, it's all I wanted to drink for the first three days. I regret however, or should I say I regret it after today...I did not follow the "diet" plan like I was supposed to! :scared0: The first week I did great on liquids but the second week was the hardest and I had a lot of "hunger" pains. In my stomach at times, but also a lot of "head hunger".:closedeyes: So my second week I started the second phase of my diet. And I began eating refried beans. And I loved 'em. It was great!:thumbup: But I felt so guilty and worried all of the time that I was injuring something by not following the plan. So were the beans really worth the guilt and worry....ABSOLUTELY! :001_tt2: Now I'm in the stage where I am to start eating mushy soft foods, but I've already had Maui Maui tacos without the shell, a peanut butter cookie, pudding (which wasn't on my list), quiche, and a piece of a fruit tart. :ohmy: All of this and I should only be on soft foods. Here is my problem, and judge me not unless you've walked in my shoes, I don't do well with rules, that's why I'm in the situation, right? BUT I WAS STARVING PEOPLE! Literally wanting to join the termite community and eat a house down. :tongue_smilie: but today....I woke up from a nap with the worst, most God aweful taste in my mouth and a burning fire in my throat. :scared0::cursing: Within seconds I was on the phone with my Dr. who instructed me to take prilosec/prevacid for my acid reflux. Today is my birthday, and all I want in the world is to be able to eat normally. And I can't. And that sucks! But I'm 21 lbs down (pre-op) and 14 lbs down (post-op) (my weight went up in the hospital, so I'm counting that) So I guess I want to know, is there anyone out there like me? Have any of you done what I have? And what were your results/complications? Peace and Love, ChubbyGirl:tongue2:
  4. Thank you for your honesty and your kind words....I was beginning to think I was the only one with a rebellious nature. :)

    Did anyone cheat?

    Thanks everyone! I guess I'm the only rebel of the bunch!:scared0: But I get what your saying. So when you've cheated and your body is used to getting food...how do start over after a week of feeding yourself? Essentially, how do you wipe the slate clean...start over?:001_unsure:
