Just want to introduce myself.

Hello, I had my surgery a little over 3 weeks ago. The surgery went very well and I've been doing well so far. I was having a problem with anxiety for a bit. It's all so new and there is so much to think about. My primary doctor has put me on a very low dose anxiety med (I did suffer from mild anxiety years ago); and I feel so much better. I'm currently on soft solids and am starting to run out of food choice ideas. I'll take any suggestions. I do get to add in fibrous veggies in a few weeks; so I know that will help. I have a friend that had the band done, a friend that had the sleeve done; and a friend that had the full bypass done; but I'm hoping to find some people to talk with that are currently going through the same thing. My friend that had the bad done is almost three years out and doesn't remember a lot of the stuff from just after she had the surgery. I hope I can help others with any questions they may have too.

I guess that's about it for now. Hope to talk with people soon!!!

Welcome...I know what you mean. I have been on mushie foods for awhile and I eat the same thing every day. Cottage cheese, sugar free Jello and sugar free pudding. Oh yes and Tomato soup..lol

Dawn200321, I just checked out the nutrition forum; and they have some great recipes in there. I could spend days looking around. I found three that I'm going to try over the weekend. I think it's going to help with getting bored with the mushies. Check it out. Hope it helps. I had to get out because I was ignoring my family. LOL.
