Des0520 28 Posted August 8, 2012 That is awesome! I didn't get to do that for a while after mine, but it looks like my doc has longer time lines than other doctors. Enjoy the soft food! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ugot2laff 35 Posted August 8, 2012 how lucky are you!! I'm 8 days post op and just got to start drinking Protein Shakes today. I don't start soft foods until week 5, I have a ways to go and can't wait!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MamaMelly 97 Posted August 8, 2012 Jealous! We get to start soft foods 3 weeks out. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des0520 28 Posted August 8, 2012 I got soft foods 5 weeks out. I would give myself a treat by getting Soup from McCalisters once a week and liquefying it. So one meal a week was something tasty and yes I asked my dr before doing it lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donny 270 Posted August 8, 2012 I have an off topic question for you! I have my surgery in a month and found out it is scheduled for 10 days before on of my buddies is coming to visit me. How are you feeling 9 days out? Do you have energy and feel you could entertain? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxskillz 43 Posted August 8, 2012 Good to hear you are doing better Rissy. Donny, I'm 9 days post op and I could entertain. May not be like it once was with multiple trips to "breastrants" for wings like it has been in the past. But I have plenty of energy to entertain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pattivalvo 23 Posted August 8, 2012 I'm 7 days out and I dream of this day. I don't think so. To each their own. I'm day 8and just barely making it around because of the loss of calories. I'm drained. I would not want to socialize for any reason up until this point but I'm starting to feel better today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RissyRoe 25 Posted August 10, 2012 The only thing I had a problem with was a Tomato sauce that I had the other day. It gave me bad reflux, other than that I can tolerate anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
