I'm on day nine and I feel like crap physically. I think it's because I'm afraid to try creamed soups and possibly experiencing malnutrition? I'm going to try to make myself eat an oz or two and see how that helps. Do you not have nausea medicine? I am sooo thankful my surgeon sent me home with them. They have been a lifesaver! Especially after 24 hours of dry heaving on my first day home. I take one at the slightest bit of feeling of nausea. I hope you feel better soon and are able to find some comfort!

I had my surgery June 10th so I'm on day 10. I was terrified but learned really quickly that the surgical pain wasn't nearly as close to challenging as getting that gas pain out. That was rough and I can now feel WHAT I suspect is some surgery pain but it pretty much just feels like I've done a few too many crunches, which I can assure you, has not happened. 😂 I only had to take my pain medication the first full day home from surgery and I'm sure it was still the gas pain. Otherwise, pain has not really been an issue which is awesome! The clear diet has not been fun at all, and this second week isn't much fun either by being able to add protein shakes but only four more days until I get to start experimenting with pureed foods! Since I LOVE chicken, tuna, and egg salads, that's what I'll be prepping up for my puree week and first week back at work. Super excited about the possibilities of this new journey!

I was told I could have creamed soups but I haven't tried them yet. I'm afraid they will gross me out. Hahahaha! I only have cream of mushroom but I reckon I could try it. When you say tomato bisque, do you mean you were able to eat tomato bisque soup or did you use tomato bisque flavoring of some sort? I thought I read somewhere that tomato based products were a no no this early but I totally have some tomato soup that I'd try a couple tablespoons of if it's not going to hurt my baby tum tum. I need to give baby tum tum a name I think....😂

Soft vegetables on day nine? My nutritionist says clear to thick liquids, like protein shakes, on week two. I'm genuinely curious because I'm starving so if I can try other things, soft smooshy things, I might do so. Because I have zero energy and am exhausted on just clear liquids and protein shakes.
