Incisions look amazing... Only itching like crazy due to my skin being irritated from adhesives!

I got moved up to yogurt, sf pudding, cream of rice and cream Soups

Down 16 lbs since Weds but down 44lbs since pre surgery!!!

What are you doing for the itching? I'm scared to put anything near my incisions.

Hang in there. I had a rough start they had to go back in after I had some internal bleeding and my hemoglobin is still recovering. I did struggle the first couple days too. I found small sips throughout day helped. chicken broth went down well -did u try that?

My doctor told me "nothing" is to go on my incisions and to just scrub with soap in shower! Outside the shower it drives me crazy but each day is getting better!

As far as the liquids I wasn't able to get much down but I was able to get more down each day just make sure you are getting your Protein intake!

I went for my first post op visit today and he told me same thing. Actually told me to go to soft foods

I am on my 7th day post op and have been recovering so well. I am supposed to be on a full liquid diet until Sunday morning but I am dying for puréed foods. This creamy Soup stuff was great for a day or two but now I just want chicken and tuna and things like that.

I felt the same way- was glad he told me to go to soft and chew well
