madfroglady 0 Posted August 23, 2007 I DID get the go ahead to move forward a little yesterday when I called to make post-op check up! So I had some bean Soup last night, but had my first -- ALMOST -- golf ball today trying to eat some grits. Got in too big of a hurry cause they were SOOO good. Had to lift my hands over my head and pray for a few moments! When I need to slow down, I turn my spoon over and my "bites" turn to licks. I'm venturing out to the store today to examine everything on the soup aisle that might be good blended. btw -- what do you have against frogs?? Right there with you again. :phanvan I ate a bowl of cheese soup today. (An old fav from my days in Wisconsin.) About an hour later I took the dog to the dog park when my .... ummm.... Lower digestive tract ... decided that I had not had anything that thick or fatty in weeks. And of course there is no bathroom at the dog park. I barely made it home in time. Very scary and I still feel sick. :sick As for the name, it's because I am mad (as in crazy) about frogs, not mad (as in angry) at frogs. I love 'em. I have them all over my house. I even have a French Bulldog which are often called Frog Dogs because they look like frogs/toads. the mad frog lady. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NanaRenan 0 Posted August 23, 2007 LOL I was teasing you about the name. I knew what you meant because my oldest daughter has been "mad" about frogs for a long time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPEBSQSAlady 0 Posted August 23, 2007 I was banded on Tuesday Aug 21 so I am only 3 days out. For 2 days I had liquids I could read a newpaper through, but on day 3 (today) I went to liquids you could get through a straw. Woo-Hoo I had some Tomato juice. Man it was like heaven. I have missed tomatoes for weeks and they one of my favorite foods. I also tried some Cream of Wheat thinned and it was not too bad either. I am also heading to the store to shop for Soup ideas. That potato/cheese sounds really good. How are you ladies feeling? I have some pain, but nothing like I expected. I also have been burping alot. Unexpected large burps, is that normal?

Normal, and good, after surgery! I burped and burped for about five days afterwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
claramae 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Spedsqsalady---Glad you came through good; knew you would. Those tomatoes sound so good. For some reason, I had a strong craving for a Tomato. Probably a BLT!!!!!!!!! I will have my surgery tomorrow on the 27th. I will be so happy to graduate to cream of wheat!!! I never thought I would look forward to cream of wheat. Keep me posted as to how you are doing. You are a few days ahead of me on this journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
