Difference between the 2 stages kiwi jet is that mushy isn't quite as puréed, but still soft. Does that make sense? I saw my dietician last week, for my week 3 foods (puréed) and week 4 and solids, and they have given me a sheet for each with suggested foods, things to avoid etc.

Also, I bought a plate online, it's for bariatric sleeve patients, for Portion Control, to make sure I get the right size & balance of what I should be eating on a plate eg mainly Protein, comes with recipes and also a bowl., as I don't always want to measure but the plate has visual aids

Maybe take some senna to help things get moving. It's probably a lot from your meds. I had surgery the thurs and didn't go to loo until the Sunday, and the first time was hard but after that it was all just liquids as that's all I was having

I can't believe you tried chicken yum did you feel it going all the way down

I can't believe how little I can eat I knew what I was getting myself into but it's still a surprise it's virtually nothing.

Have your yummy juices been nice? They sounded Devine

Def sounds like you need some mild laxatives to get things moving along. Are you drinking enough fluids too?

I've been reading it's quite common to get haemeroids after? I'm sure it must be very uncomfortable you poor thing.

Congrads thats pretty good for a week. Icant weight myself easily as its hard to find scales that are big enough. But im happy to leave it to weekly weighs or longer. I have an app this Fri to get all the staples (18) out of my chest so will probably weigh myself then.

I can only tolerate half a measuring cup of puréed food. If it's a cup of Soup I can tolerate almost 1 measuring cup.
