KevinsBabyGirl85 364 Posted April 22, 2012 I think it was between 6 and 8 weeks I was on full liquids for 2 weeks then puréed for another 3 because I couldn't tolerate solid foods then I moved on to semi solids then slowly added more solids I didn't really eat normal again until about 12 weeks out!

Anjela424 23 Posted April 22, 2012 I'm only 4 and a half weeks out and I had and endoscopy Friday. I took two tiny bites of baked chicken tonight and was stuffed. I'll give it a few more weeks. I didn't vomit or anything though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLCoggin 1,788 Posted April 26, 2012 It was roughly six weeks for me as well. I had a "schedule" of foods to add at specific intervals over a period of two or three months. The first couple of weeks of all liquids is by far the toughest. It gets much, much easier after that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anjela424 23 Posted April 26, 2012 I have a schedule too I guess but a lot of that stuff I don't eat. Like everyone keeps saying cottage cheese is so good but just the look of it turns my stomach. Its weird. I've been just kinda trying things on my own. Some things work and some don't. I just wanna get over the hump and feel regular again. I deal with a lot of nausea and vomiting and its horrible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anjela424 23 Posted April 26, 2012 When I took my meds today they were hard going down. That's a sign that there's another stricture developing. I'll know for sure tomorrow after they repeat the endoscopy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
