I'm days PO and I ate 1 whole meatball!! The amazing part is that I don't want/need any more! It's a strange feeling but I good one.

[sillygirlee 3]

You ate a meatball post op???? How many days?

[Wls4me 163]

Oh sorry. Not sure why that didn't come up but I'm 16 days PO. It took me 30 mins and I had to reheat it but it went down pretty easy.

I JUST made meatballs and didn't even get through half!! It's amazing!!

However, I really miss drinking a big glass of milk! I have my timer set for when I can drink some! Lol

I'm surprised your not getting any negative comments about this ! You go girl ! Good luck and more power to you !

Was it like a golf ball sized meatball? Or like the baseball sized ones? Lol

[sarahzamudio1091 185]

I'm almost 3 months and a meatball would fill me up for a whole day lmao

[Wls4me 163]

It was just one of the small frozen ones but its the most volume I've eaten since my surgery. (I ate a second one a little while ago but don't tell anyone)

I was told by my Dr. If you eat anything thicker than milk before 21 days you could get in big trouble!! I remember his face just before heading to surgery... He told me a patient of his ate a yogurt and it got stuck. It wouldn't move and oozed through her stitches! She had to be re-admitted, got an infection, ended up in ICU for a month!!! That was enough for me to not push it! I'm only 6 days post op, but I am dreaming about the day I can have oatmeal and scrambled eggs!

Going threw the stitches ? Wow never heard that one before !

It's on my list for after day 15. Any soft ground meat. And it's on the suggestion list from my NUT. I had 2 weeks of liquids now soft foods. Everyone's doctors and NUTs have different plans.

I've questioned these differences in nutrition plans from the start. It's the same procedure universally - why do the diet plans vary so much? I am only allowed soft foods beginning on day 21, and no meat of any kind until day 48.

BTW, I'm not questioning or challenging anyone's plan VS mine - I'd just love meatball a week from now instead of five weeks. #pitypartyforone

Well my surgeon and dietician cleared soft foods such as lean meats at 2 weeks as well. Every doctor is different so don't let anyone tell you that you can't eat a meatball 2 weeks out. If your stomach can stand it then it is yours to eat. I ate my first piece of chicken 2 weeks out and a meatball 3.. It's all about what your body can take at this point. I eat any Protein now at 5 weeks. The only things I can't eat are raw veggies, breads and pastas at this point. My salad will be in 3 more weeks which is very exciting!

[Ballermom 803]

I'm 17 days and I on soft foods. I don't eat a large amount lucky if I get 1/2 of a saucer plate in

But I eat eggs cheese turkey slices cottage cheese slice cheese baked fish. I tried turkey patty crumbled

Syntax and Unjury shakes.

My Nut gave me the ok for 1 saltine cracker and

Tortilla low carb 1/4 of 1. Per week only.

I think I need to up my Activity and Water I'm up

1 pound!
