10 day post op food intake

[vickie 3]

so on day 7 I was allowed to add yogurts so I did. Couldn't even finish half. Now today I just finished the whole thing in like 20 minutes. Is that ok? I feel like I shouldn't be able to eat that much. I was afraid I wouldn't feel full either as I was finishing it up. But i'm starting to get full feeling now. I hope I didn't mes something up. If you haven't noticed from my other posts i'm a worry wort. Lol

well to be honest with you I was on Clear Liquids for the first two weeks after surgery. the third week I was on thick liquids like yougurt and sugarfree pudding. I had sugery the 1st so I am a little bit further out than you but I am almost able to finish a yougurt I usually leave maybe a ounce left in the cup. For some reason or another yogurts with fruit seem to feel me up faster. When I eat vanilla yogurt I usually finish all of it. Any way so I guess if you are doing something wrong than I am too. So good luck I really don't think that either one of us is doing anything wrong. The most important thing is to eat really slow and listen to your body when it says its full put it down.. I think your doing well though..

I am 8 days out and I can finish a sugar-free Jello pudding. It takes about 20-30 minutes, but I don't have any problem finishing it. First few days I was wondering if I could get enough liquids down to not dehydrate, and now I am worried I can eat too much. Maybe that's normal, I don't know.

I think you are fine so long as you listen when your stomach tells you to stop. I do find if I eat too quickly that I sometimes can eat a bit too much and feel nauseous afterwards, so watch out for that! Also, yogurt might be considered a bit of a slider food since it's semi-liquid. I know I can eat almost a cup of Soup, but I still can only eat an ounce or so of chicken...
