my first "STUCK"

[carolann0117 5]

Got my second fill this past Saturday and was on liquids since then. My doc suggested to be on liquids for two weeks. I found it almost impossible when I had my first fill and made it about a week and a half before I caved and started eating my normal stuff. Well... I tried to "do it my way"... and low and behold... I was wrong. My husband made some great ham steaks for dinner and I took a bigger bite than I should have. WOW... that was a huge MISTAKE. I guess I should have tried something in the mushy category first. NASTY... I really learned a lesson!!! Well... I did learn that I definitely have the most restriction than I've ever felt..... maybe I'll be lucky and find this to be my "sweet spot". I will now Forever take small bites and chew like crazy before I swallow.

I have never heard of having to be on liquids for 2 weeks after a fill . My Dr recommends liquids for the day of the fill then mushy/soft foods for a couple of days afterwards.

My DR doesnt require liquids after a fill. I was just told if solids were uncomfortable then to go back to liquids or mushies for a day or two.

I have experienced two stuck episodes and I hope I don't go for number three!

I never heard of liquids for 2 weeks either, after a fill I usually on liquids for a day then to mushy for a couple of days then back to solids.

My Dr. says 24hrs of no solids.

As far as getting stuck, you start to learn what foods to stay away from. I agree, bread for me is no more. So long to those great sandwiches.

I am now truly my Dog's best friend. I can take one bite of something, swallow, and tell that's not gonna be good.
