Started back work today and Food questions

[rebchief 52]

I am two weeks post op. Down 27 lbs.

went back to work today. Work in an orthopedic office placing casts, splints and braces on patients. Gotta a little winded, arms are sore and was a little low on energy a couple times today. Had help and am glad I did!!!

My surgeon said that soft, scrambled eggs, refried Beans, smooth Peanut Butter and grits are fine on my plan now. I was one week Clear Liquids, one week full liquid and purée /soft foods. He said to start reprogramming my chewing mechanism.

Question is what else would be appropriate during this time? I have no NUT so I am relying heavily on you all.

I also asked him how I was eating 1/2 cup at a meal (eaten with 10 min) and able to sip Water afterwards and he said he made my sleeve about the size of a plantain. He said not to worry so much on tablespoons and amounts but again to relearn my chewing mechanism.

Every doctor has different plans but this is what my nut gave me. I hope this helps you. Ignore my highlights! And dates that apply to me
