@beebee17

when i first met with my NUT pre-op,

she brought up gum - said you should

never have any.! i don't remember her

exact explanation, something like it

could get "stuck"?? wellllll, i haven't

been a a gum chewer in a longgg time.

no problem about no gum now.

chewing gum must be nice - losing weight???

much nicer!!

you are right, liquid diet is a bitchhhh

good luck with surgery.

My surgeon also told me no gum. Guess it doesn't digest quickly or completely if accidentally swallowed so can create difficulties. Even after 5 years, it is still strongly discouraged.

I still chew gum, I consider it a public service. I can't stand smelling what people ate for lunch when they walk past me, or sit close by. I just spit it in to the wrapper when I am done.
